“My artistic work focuses on photography, theoretical research, writing, installation and publishing. My projectsthat sometimes question our Western society, sometimes my Neapolitan origins and my immediate surroundings. My preferred territories are shifting, unstable, generally marked by the energies linked to production, consumption and speed. My deepest desire is to track down what makes up trace and memory, in order to reveal the tensions at work in a territory.”
