CLAY
Free from all that memory and collective experience have filed and corrected to make him similar among similars, man returns to being a fragment of distinct humanity and rediscovers with wonder his primordial creative power.
He's one and everyone, he’s a crowd exploded, he’s emotions still indefinite which carry him in the ecstasy of amazement.
here is an uncontaminated sensuality in those gestures of discovery and in the hands that wander the pliable boundary of bodies so as to take possession of the new awareness of being, of existing, of perceiving himself and the other as something unique and unrepeatable.

Born in Rimini in 1971, I started shooting when I was at 8 years old.
Photography has accompanied my whole life as an increasingly personal and intimate expression. A form of art allowing me to communicate to others my own emotions and those of others. A reality where to close oneself as a form of defense. I earned my degree in architecture in Florence in 2002 and before that I graduated in Math and Science. For many years I dealt with industrial archeology and did deep research for a book I later published dedicated to brick kilns. Starting back in the year 2000 I began to dedicate my interest to dance photography and, as years went by, it was in that world that I found my personal reality, to the point of attending tanztheater classes myself and collaborating with top professional dancers of the highest level. Among the artists and dance companies I’ve had the honour and pleasure of shooting: Giuseppe Picone, Letizia Giuliani, Svetlana Zekharova, Antonio Gades Dance Company, MaggioDanza, Bellet of Kiev, Aterbaletto and many others. Since 2014, I have been dealing increasingly with video-making, both in the field of dance and beyond.
