TRAVELS
After my graduation, I began to travel by myself. In Europe, then in the United States and in South America. At that moment I didn’t know to be a photographer, actually, I didn’t know who I was. But my camera was with me and walking through the streets and the alleys of Paris I suddenly found a huge inspiration, an inspiration that followed me in every city I visited since that moment. I didn’t choose to photograph, it just happened something in me that told me to do it: what I love about Street Photography is that, unlike studio, architecture or landscape photography, if in that moment you hadn’t been there, that picture would never have existed. If you had chosen another street or if you had stopped to look at your smartphone, such picture would never have existed. The fact to be there, to have taken this picture, somehow makes you feel a little like a special human being. As Josef Koudelka said: “When you live in a place for long, you become blind because you do not observe anything. I travel not to go blind”
