On the other side of the same mountain.

A border is a line drawn by politics, yet woven through memories and traditions that transcend division.

Along the border between Italy and Slovenia, this project seeks to capture the essence of those who live in

the in-between—where cultures intertwine and identities blur. Despite the shifting tides of political

discourse, these communities continue to embrace their heritage, fostering pluralistic societies in an era

increasingly marked by cultural divisions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the Soil, Nothing is Forgotten.

 

The Anthropocene shapes our world in ways both visible and unseen, driving the expansion of mass industries that redefine our connection to nature. This project explores these forces by focusing on their tangible impacts, revealing the hidden costs of systems that prioritize profit over the well-being of the planet.

Through the lens of the cut flower industry, a metaphor for our era unfolds: a delicate balance between beauty and devastation.

Flowers, grown under the weight of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, are transported thousands of kilometers to decorate distant spaces, masking stories of human and ecological exploitation. Their splendor is fleeting-destined to fade within days-yet in that brief moment, they conceal a profound and uncomfortable truth: the invisible cost of what we call beauty.

Oreste

 

My grandfather, Oreste, was part of that post-war generation that rebuilt a country from scratch, inventing professions where there were none and contributing to the economic recovery of a nation on the brink. In a small workshop, he was a craftsman, producing chairs, sofas, and curtains, all meticulously handmade. These unique pieces, crafted alongside his fellow artisans, helped shape the cultural identity of a nation.

 

In this context, we find ourselves confronted with an economic reality increasingly influenced by large multinational corporations. Economic giants dominate the business landscape, exerting a profound impact on the economy, society, and culture.

Material Identities

There is something fascinating about seeing, touching, and imagining the history of objects that belonged to other people. Objects that were once precious to someone but now seem devoid of value, suspended in a new dimension of anonymity. This makes me reflect: what value do we assign to things? What energy do they carry with them?

This project is a visual reflection on the material world and its interconnectedness with our lives. Through photographs, I explore the meaning and value we attribute to objects, investigating the stories and emotions they convey.
