BIOGRAFIA  

The light has always been a part of my life, since I had to make decisions about my school, a technical one, and later with the opportunities offered from the job, that began when I was only 16 years old. I judge it as a great fortune that I have been able, since the beginning, to combine my love for the light with my job: the theatre, first of all! The opportunities that one has in illuminating a stage, a show, confronting yourself with the directors before and the public later, the feelings that you can convey to the spectator.... The light in order to exalt the most beautiful moments, the most dramatic ones, in order to exemplify the lightness of a classic dance, or to emphasize the force of a "hard rock" band...
Here, I have been allowed to do it for many years. And with people who represent or have represented the performing arts in Italy and abroad, actors, directors and directors of the photography. From Adriana Asti to Valeria Moriconi, from Andrea Camilleri to Franco Zeffirelli, Franco Ferrari to Krzysztof Zanussi, Toquinho to the “Stadio”, just to enumerate some of the artists for which I have worked.
Despite not deserving it I have been allowed to communicate part of my experiences to young people who are taking their first steps in this wonderful world, teaching the technology of the lighting system of show in some professional courses.

The photography, the art of the light, has always gone with me, it has reflected much of my life and has always been with me.
With my shots I wish "to yield my emotions": to try disperatamente to provoke in who looks at one of my photos, at least an infinitesimal part of the feelings that I have felt in the moment when the picture was taken.
That is why I commit myself so little to the "postproduction". I try to compose my photo "in my camera", leaving to the computer very little to do , with rare exceptions. The “post-production” that I usually carry out, it is limited to what it could be made (and it was made) in darkroom. And it is also for this, that besides the photos of my travels and the places that I visit with my motorcycle or with my 4X4 vehicle together with my friends, or to the photos of theatrical performances or of dance that have particularly fascinated me, an important part of my job is dedicated to the photos of feminine nude figures.

The nudity of a woman, understood not only as eroticism, even if sex represents for me a basic concept, is a way to represent a woman in all her features, that I do not limit to the aesthetic taste dictated by the trends of the age in which alive: the beauty models have been changing in the course of the years and I believe they will be still modified in the future. The pictures of the nudity of a woman that I desperately try to produce is not never usual, expected or, worse, disheartening for the Women who let themselves being. And " my Women " just for this reason are not necessarily models. They are managers, or shop-girls; they are students or housewives: Women that have in the eyes the "light", and they have a little bit of healthy exhibitionism (that is a gift, from my point of view) Women, who want to enjoy their lives, to show themselves, to pride their selves.

I repeat: I think it is unfair and annoying to hear people speaking of photo of naked “romantic" or " pure ", especially among my colleagues: I think it is like hiding oneself behind a glass wall, which is too much transparent .
The photos of naked women are always sensual, and hide too much obvious erotic charge, that often (not with me, I hope) end up in pornography, a genre that I do not condemn at all but that I think little useful.

I, when trying to describe my photos, never define them romantic and pure. They are not virgin-like at all, if not very rarely. And I don’t think is corrected to define in this way the Women who have posed and will pose for me. Their naked bodies, or dressed in a single light, are without doubt sensual, sometimes erotic, sometimes maternal, raw, or with strong contrasts.
And if observing my photos of nude woman figures, you are not able to perceive these feelings, I will be the only one guilty, I beg your pardon.
