“We are concentrated in cities, we develop technologies to control everything, when everything cannot be controlled, we are stressed by everyday life…“
“At a certain point in our life a need arises, ancestral, intimate, to get away for a moment, not to escape but to rediscover the true essence of things, to give value to the essential, to activate the survival instinct, arriving at the deepest part of ourselves, taking a different path and like every other path must start from the beginning.
So my journey began.”
This is the intro of my first photobook made in Peru.
I wanted to tell a journey not only physical but above all spiritual and introspective in one of those most mysterious and magnificent place on our planet: the sacred Valley of the Incas and Machu Picchu.
The work was created and designed on a photographic level as a sort of reportage in which aspects of daily life were emphasized, faces, places and breathtaking panoramas.
Above all, I have committed myself to capturing unique, perfect and unrepeatable moments.Contact with nature is total: the sensations that I felt along the way are indescribable in words but with the powerful medium that is photography, I tried to convey them to the best of my ability.
All of this has had a big impact on me. I felt the need to share these feelings.
