10 days ago was the date my first set on this site went live.
4 years ago then!
The site has changed so much since the first time I signed up, but nevertheless, I owe to SG some of the most wonderful moments, people and experiences of the past years.
I am quite proud of the improvements i made in my life and in my work and my research, and I feel really lucky to be able to make a sufficient amount of money doing what I love: photographing people my way.
Sg gave me the opportunity to improve, become a better professional, get a lot of visibility. So now I get commissions just because of my style, wich is quite amazing. Shooting can be tiring & draining sometimes, as well as the constant interacting with people and models, but I still have the capability of falling in love with some small details of the scene as I look into the viewfinder, so I cant help thinking I am incredibly lucky.
Right now I am navigating in very calm waters. These years have been a mess: travelling a lot, constantly moving, doing lots of drugs and drinking, trying to keep up with work, love affairs, friends... I needed the restlessness, and somehow I still do. But since I decided to move back to Milan i have been feeling shamlessly disconnected from the world, concentrated on work and art, or whatever you want to call it, and it feels quite good. It's like I am re- working all the exciting confusion of the past years, re- elaborating and producing. Maybe it's just age, I feel a bit better with myself, and I dont crave pain and suffering anymore.
Hopefully it will last, at least till it gets too boring.

So it seems like I havent updated for a WHILE here!
so here's what's going on in my land, as far as I know:
I have been under the constant impression of going to class without doing homework. Wich doesnt mean I havent been doing homework at all, I am just taking way to many classes in the life school at the moment, if the metaphore makes sense....
I have been working a Lot, travelling a Lot, indulging in love affairs and drunken nights a Lot.... right now I am moving again, sadly time to say good bye to Rome, and go back to Milan, capital of productivity, at least here in Italy, and finally get a proper studio so i wont have to travel SO FUCking much.
I am not promising I'll get my shit together in a very effective way, but at least I am trying to avoid thinking i am wonder woman and i can be in 5 places at the same time!
But I'll b eshowing stuff here-.... show up if you wish ;-)

THE CONTROVERSIAL NANA SET
just a quick response to all those that have been messaging me about the Nana set. I am sorry I dont have time and internet space right now for replying in all the threads.
My work for SG is based on working the set subject along with the model, meaning giving my eye to an idea, and working on the subject together with the girl. The set has various influences in art, Ken-ichi Murata, Izima Kaoru, Shimotsuma Monogatari, and it was never shot with the intent of offending anyone, but more with a narrative approach: talking about rape is NOT disprespecting rape victims. I see art also as a cathartic medium that can be used to have an insight on topics that we often remove from our conscience: the taboo, the pain, the violence are part of life.
I dont share Nana's political views, but I respect her research, and I see her as someone that really lives her own life as if she were herself an artpiece. Her way of being provocative is never superficial or lacks motivation, and i deeply respect that.
This being said, I am sorry if the set was offensive to anyone, the aim was getting people thinking, wich to me is the biggest power of communication and art.
