I am irresistibly fascinated by architecture since it can combine for its very nature an exquisite sense of aesthetics and a rational engineering genius. Located in the city of Lisbon in Portugal and crossing the Tagus River, The Vasco da Gama Bridge is definitely an example of this with its cable-stayed structure and majestic pylons. Crossing the bridge is an emotional experience which allows to experiment different perspectives to unleash your creativity while playing with lines and light, including the expression of an abstract taste

Bio
I was born in Monza, Northern Italy and have always been passionate about photography, long before owing a camera. My approach to photography is rooted in cross-genre experimentalism often lying in minimalism and abstraction which are in my view particularly effective in interpreting photography not much as a way of documenting reality but as a reflection about reality itself both on a personal and universal level. I express myself through several genres (fine art, architecture, landscape, street photography, documentary) and approach several styles and photographic techniques.
