The Beating Brain
“I have opened my eye on the abyss. My lens has focused on the severe migraine. A nasty and devious disease that destroy your psyche and body leaving indifferent all the people that observe it from outside.”
This work wants to create awareness and empathy on this health and social plague that touch prevalently women. The movement in the photos (ICM Technique) helps to represent the fluidity of the pain and the beating of the brain that sometime seems to explode. This work has been promoted by the non profit organization WomanCare and presented to The Italian Parlament at Palazzo Macuto in Rome with a photo exhibition and a conference with a scientific and political panel.

2016
I have spent almost a year far from the art scene. I just wanted to make photos and write again poetry without any distractions. I needed a pause from the aggressive and crazy world of art. It was refreshing staying away from a while. My soul needed that. I needed to be reconnected with lost values and Nature.
