Amarcord

"Amarcord" means I remember in Italian dialect. This is significant because my work is about memories, nostalgia, and the forgotten. In other words, the past. I percieve these photographs as little poems, I leave some room for them to evocate. Time passes, instants are ephemeral and what is left is only a memory replaced by others. An abandoned space, isolated, can make us jump backwards into our lives, back towards a certain time. The smell of a room, objects unchanged, traces of a past that once existed but is now forgotten . I collect memories. I travel in the past through spaces and testimonies. This work is a way of reviving totally abandoned spaces, of resurrecting the people who are no longer there, and of remembering; an exploration through the memories of a bygone era, reviving a distant past
