My interest in photography started at around age 17, using a soviet camera that came around the house from one of our family trips to Poland. That interest soon became a passion, strengthened by a photo enlarger gifted to me by a professor at high school. In 1998 I attended a fashion photography course in Milan and worked as a photo assistant for Ramak Fazel and Maria Vittoria Backhaus between 1999 and 2001. The encounter with Ramak Fazel especially, broadened my view about photography and what could be done with it: for the first time I saw the works of Michael Ackerman, William Eggleston, Jeff Wall, Bruce Davidson (to name just a few). Fate took me back to Genova, where I work as an electronic service engineer. I'm following personal projects to be self published in zines and books.
