Bovisa or nowhere

1000 METERS FROM HOME The project was born with the idea of ​​crystallizing the landscape and urban transformations of a neighborhood in MIlano through a photographic search of places and symbols that we consume daily, without however grasping their social essence and historical value. A visual narration in a dreamlike dialogue with the future. This project was born out of time: rediscovered, in the moment of global lockdown. We live fast, we don't have time to stop and look at what's around us. To observe what surrounds us. I learned to observe slowly, to have time, to return several times to the same places and to the same streets, on the same street corner, always discovering different points of view and new angles. 1000 meters from home, it is a small journey around one's daily life, walking slowly, in a labyrinth of warehouses, fences and grandiose artifacts of industrial archeology, chasing a historical memory that should not be archived as a past to be forgotten and buried but which instead must be as a stimulus to build the future of this place.
