BIT­TER HONEY

“Bit­ter honey” is a docu­men­ta­ry pro­ject about the chal­len­ging expe­rien­ce of con­tem­po­ra­ry bee­kee­ping. By fol­lo­wing bee­kee­pers across Fran­ce, Mar­gaux Sen­lis seeks to bear wit­ness to the disap­pea­ran­ce of bees throu­gh a pho­to­gra­phic series with soft appea­ran­ces and honey-like, allu­ring tones. The cau­ses of this disap­pea­ran­ce are various and con­nec­ted; cli­ma­te chan­ge, droughts, para­si­tes, mono­cul­tu­res, and […]

NON FIC­TION

“To give truth the colour and nar­ra­ti­ve for­ce of fic­tion”, this was Tru­man Capote’s ambi­tion when he wro­te ‘In Cold Blood’, the true account of a qua­dru­ple homi­ci­de in 1960s Kan­sas. It is the star­ting point for Non Fic­tion, a work of lyri­cal docu­men­ta­ry that explo­res the porous boun­da­ry bet­ween fact and fic­tion in pho­to­gra­phy. […]

ISO­LA MADRE

ll foto­gra­fo Mar­co Far­mal­li e il suo obiet­ti­vo si distri­ca­no fra le pie­tre anti­chis­si­me, le case popo­la­ri e gli angu­sti vico­li che non vedo­no mai la luce del sole del­la Cit­tà Vec­chia di Taran­to. Il quar­tie­re, così come Orti­gia a Sira­cu­sa, è sepa­ra­to dal resto del­la cit­tà da un pon­te ed entran­do­vi sem­bra d’immergersi in […]

SOON TO BE GONE

As far back as in the 1930s, during the times of the Great Depres­sion in the Uni­ted Sta­tes, a group of pho­to­gra­phers such as Wal­ker Evans, Doro­thea Lan­ge, and Jack Dela­no, led by Roy Stry­ker, Head of the Farm Secu­ri­ty Admi­ni­stra­tion (FSA), kept restles­sly recor­ding views which were soon desti­ned to fade into obscu­ri­ty. The […]

ASYMP­TO­TE

Asymp­to­te uses archi­tec­tu­ral sites that are authen­tic to the era of socia­li­sm. Pla­ces, for­mer sym­bols of power and great­ness, ele­va­ted in order to make the per­son feel small. Today they stand still, strip­ped of essen­tial pur­po­se, aban­do­ned or for­got­ten like gra­ve­sto­nes of their for­mer glo­ry. Asymp­to­te mer­ges past and pre­sent, by reflec­ting on one at […]

BER­GE­RIE DE FAU­CON

La Ber­ge­rie de Fau­con is a spe­cial home whe­re young peo­ple are rein­te­gra­ted  throu­gh con­tact with ani­mals. I docu­ment this moment of rup­tu­re for  young peo­ple, who are in tran­si­tion bet­ween the worlds of chil­d­hood and  adul­thood.  Loca­ted in Rou­gon, in the heart of the Gor­ges du Ver­don  Regio­nal Park, the Ber­ge­rie de Fau­con was crea­ted […]

YOU CAN SEE ME, BUT I DON’T EXI­ST. INTER­VIEW TO ALAN GIGNOUX

Bir­min­gham in Augu­st can feel like Octo­ber in my nati­ve Ita­ly. I was taking a stroll throu­gh the city cen­trein, but the rain and wind for­ced me to take shel­ter in the public libra­ry. As the how­ling wind rat­tled the win­do­ws, I wal­ked slo­w­ly throu­gh the hall­ways on the top floor fil­led with books and […]

UNDER A NEW SUN

In his series, Under a New Sun, José Castrel­lón looks inward at a chap­ter of his life that has sha­ped him, perhaps out­ward­ly too, in search of what lies ahead. Eve­ry moment and eve­ry deci­sion are a tur­ning point in what seems to be an eter­nal pro­cess of beco­ming, of living bet­ween a year­ning for […]

SIGNAL

Signal esplo­ra il con­cet­to di «pos­si­bi­li­tà», inte­so come “carat­te­ri­sti­ca di ciò che può esi­ste­re, rea­liz­zar­si, avve­ni­re”. L’obiettivo di que­sto pro­get­to foto­gra­fi­co è infat­ti rac­con­ta­re la sen­sa­zio­ne del­la ricer­ca con­ti­nua, ma non costan­te, di quei gio­va­ni adul­ti che ten­ta­no di tro­va­re un segnale.Ci tro­via­mo nel ven­tu­ne­si­mo seco­lo e vivia­mo in una socie­tà dove le auto­mo­bi­li sono […]
