AUTHOR'S NOTE
I have lived for many years in Italy, a country with a thousand faces that never fails to surprise and fascinate me. I can’t conceive of my life without images: they are a true language, where form demands a constant training to refine its expression, where our rational sense cannot be detached from our inner self, from our personal path, from our conscience, opinions, thoughts, emotions, instincts… Reporting is like putting oneself entirely at the
