The Elephant Man
The acceptance of diversity in our society is still a pending task. There are still corners of society and movements of thought that are unfortunately coming back into vogue, that hypocritically fill their mouths with do-goodism but who still think that “the different ones” are "waste" from our society.
Fotopoesie: The backstage story of a photo book
An image only makes sense if it "sees the light" and if it is seen by someone. Otherwise it would be just a visual thought. In my opinion, the best way to bring an image to life is through a book.
India: The Ancient Festival of Color!
India! There's no one adjective to capture the essence of it! Superlatives would fall short, in describing the oldest continuously existing civilization in the world.
Doubt and nostalgia for light
We have to doubt a lot, always, more and more often. Do not take anything for granted; we must not hang on to questions, waiting for others to give us an answer; we must always seek our own answer.

Niko & Adriana: Bored of being wild
Bored of being wild speaks of the wild side and the domesticated side that coexist in each of us as individual and social beings. The book visualizes the eternal struggle of many people to maintain their own uniqueness despite the “system” in which we have to fit.
A world reimagined through the eyes of Cheraine Collette
After almost 6 years, I proposed this interview for Dodho and she accepted with the same availability and affability as always, even though she has now achieved important artistic goals throughout the world and her works are listed in important art galleries both in the United States and in Europe.
