I was born in Mazara del Vallo, a small Sicilian town, in 1975. Now I live in Catania where I work as a SW engineer. I started studying photography in 2017. Now I teach street photography at the Imagozero association in Catania. I take my shots mainly in Sicily trying to capture the beauty of the world with my Fuji X100V.
My photos are simple, based on observing the humanity around me. I look for overlaps, coincidences, oddities, surreal situations. These photos are the consequence of what I see, not of a project previously thought.
In 2020 I had the great satisfaction of being a finalist in three important street photography festivals, in Rome, Miami and Istanbul. In 2021 I won in the Street category at the Imago Orbetello Photo Festival. I also got honorable mentions at PISPA twice in 2020 and 2021. I took part in the Treviso Photo Festival in September 2021. I was again finalist at ISPF in 2022
