New (?) year...

Time to check what was wrong and what was right in the year that is going to finish....

La statistica

Chi parla generalizzando non vive, commercia.
E sul mercato ciò che si vende di più, in generale, va prodotto.
I miei pensieri non sono generali, io non sono tutti.
La piccola massa insignificante ai termini della commercializzazione sono io.
E stupido chi invece di chiedere presume, invece di guardare in faccia studia le statistiche.

Merry Christmas

Merry christmas to everyone!
And if you don't say it back to me I become angry!

Capito? Augatemi e auguratevi Buan Natale alrimenti vi frusto!
Con le buone maniere si ottiene tutto....

My Dance

You know what I think about dancing, don't you?
And you know what I think about photography, right?
Well this is me, my last work into an old egyptian toilet.
And this is for my grandma, and for Hassan.

Passion?

Roland Barthes, La Camera chiara

La Foto- ritratto è un campo chiuso di forze. Quattro immagini vi si icontrano, vi si affrontano, vi si deformano. Davanti all’obiettivo io sono contemporaneamente:
quello che io credo di essere,
quello che vorrei si creda io sia,
quello che il fotografo crede io sia,
e quello di cui egli si serve per far mostra della sua arte.
(…) Immaginariamente, la Fotografia rappresenta quel particolarissimo momento in cui, a dire il vero, non sono ne un oggetto ne un soggetto, ma piuttosto un soggetto che si sente diventare oggetto: in quel momento io vivo una micro-esperienza della morte: io divento veramente spettro.
(…)
Come Spectator , io mi interessavo della fotografia solo per “sentimento”; volevo approfondirla non già come un problema (un tema), ma come una ferita:
io vedo, sento, dunque noto, guardo e penso.

Back home

All I need is to sit down and put out of my mind all the important things happened in the last 2 week in Egypt.
But it is hard….
What is really important?
Does the happiness of keeping looking into Egyptians eyes is not important like having an exhibition of your work?
Brain and Heart are full, emotionally full.
Because meeting people giving you the best they can, makes feel more than appreciate, part of the universe, and it makes you do the best yourself.

The pyramids are made with stones ok?
And they are big ok?
No!
The pyramids are symbols, they are what spirit and history and equilibrium should be.
For me of course, because I have seen them, in my way.
The cities in Egypt have crowded , they are noisy and dirty….
No!
They are alive, and full of contradictions , and mysterious.
They are like a pregnant woman . Waiting to give life to a new generation.
Yes, cities in Egypt are pregnant.
Anyway what happened to me is quite incredible.
The place I’ve seen and the people I’ve met are something special.
The emotion I felt are a gift.
Working was a pleasure.
Taking picture a necessity.
Be exactly where you want to be is almost a miracle!
