Rural Stories is a photographic research of the people's identities
and of the peasant families that living in the heart of the Valacchia
region.
My journey began almost by chance, attracted by the stories
handed down from generation to generation , from my need to
have a relationship with the people "of fatigue" and for my innate
curiosity.
A rural path, face to face with the past and the present, a trip
through the lens of my camera focused on the continuous search
for the confirmation of the meaning of the life and its unrelenting
stages.
Stories of families that have always lived in a rural environment,
near to the nature that gives so much but so much takes, where
the land is the most precious thing that exists.
