IDEA FOR A NEW BOOK
29th March 2021
I've spent the last few days following the printing process of the new book. After 9 months of work, the emotion is great to see the first sheets coming out of the rotary press at rocket speed.
The flowing photographs and the words to which they are linked remind me with absolute certainty that this book wants to be a positive message addressed to all of us. In particular, addressed to you. A message that comes from my personal experience, certainly limited and incomplete, but certainly as much true because directly lived.
Is it a photo book? Yes, with 58 large-format photographs, chosen from all those taken in the last 15 years.
Is it a book with a lot of text? Still yes, I could have publish it even without images but after all I'm a photographer, certainly not a writer...
As I write in the subtitle of the cover, it is "an inner journey in intimate union with the Earth". A path that I invite you to explore, in direct contact with Nature.
What about the title? Let's keep the surprise a little longer until the official publication, scheduled at the end of April!
9th February 2021
Last June, after the first lockdown, I created a new folder on my computer and named it "New Book".
I started filling it with notes, ideas, reflections, sensations, meaningful experiences, without knowing where all this would have led.
Over time, like many puzzle pieces, they came together and began to take shape into an harmonious whole.
Today, eight months later, the creative project is ready and is about to materialize in a "New Book", which combines words with photographs, Man with Nature, as these two blue and green circles want to symbolize.
A very ambitious project that stems from a strong inner motivation to share my message. Through my personal experience, I open up with the utmost honesty, definitely stepping out of my comfort zone. The photographs are chosen from my entire photographic archive, and range from the desert to the ice, from the sea to the mountains.
I'm going to publish it in the next months, more news soon!.
25th August 2020
am writing in "very smart working" in contact with Nature, where the connection to the energy source is a thousand times stronger than the fastest optical fiber.
I share with you the moods of the last period and the wonderful idea they have generated. Personally I feel more and more distant and detached from the direction that the world is taking and from the messages transmitted by media and institutions in particular.
My instinct would invite me to shut myself in my den even more, but there is only one life and it flows here and now, as precious as ever.
In contact with Nature, surrounded by life and immersed in beauty, I immediately find that inner balance that soothes the mind and brings out intuitions.
And so I am here today in the middle of the forest, where I am writing the texts for a new book.
Inspired by the voice of Nature, I feel a strong desire to convey a different message, which points straight to the heart of Man.
The idea of this new book is a very ambitious project for me, but when the voice within you pushes strong to share its message, then it is welcome to venture out of your comfort zone.
It is a photographic book, but with much more text than in "The Voice of the Dolomites". The photographs are chosen according to the resonance with the words to which they are connected.
The creative imagination is at work day and night, both in my city office and in the one in the middle of Nature.
I'll be back soon with more details.
