I created this blog because I wanted to share with you my photographic passion, show you some of my works.
Photography means seeing, seeing means knowing.
Photography defines my way of partecipating in the world, my understanding, my way of looking and thinking. Each photography begins when my look stops and I start to see. Every furhter step is a conseguence of the stop of my glance.
I work with series. I begin with something and then it continues, lives his own life in my mind and my eye, it shows up around me and then I stop. The theme is always open and incomplete.
The biggest series for the moment narrates Warsaw: its views, places, contrasts, my love and hate of the city. Inside this large repertoire of motives I create smaller series.
The first of them concerns the place where I was growing up seen with child's eyes: familiar surroundings, places known by heard. I tried to look for my playgrounds, spaces of my childhood's games. Did I find them? Did they exist?
They were always hidden between and along: between blocks of flats, between and along streets and pavements. It was my school of experiencing the city space.
