• Biography
  I'm an amateur photographer and my favorite photographic genres are architecture, minimalism, street photography and naturalistic photography. About 5 years ago I started exhibiting my photographs in several collective exhibitions in Italy and abroad and I won some international contests. One of my last exhibitions was in a gallery in Rue de Seine in Paris (Galerie Etienne de Causans) during the Paris PhotoAward 2019 and my photo was sold to a Parisian collectionist.
