My studies led me to the cobblestone streets of Ferrara, Italy, where I immersed myself in the Art Institute as a teenager. There, history of art, sculptures, and canvas composition intertwined within me, weaving a deep understanding of aesthetics in all its forms. As the culmination of my academic pursuit, I earned a degree in architecture under the guidance of mentors and skilled experts in this field. During my final year of university, I embarked on an Erasmus experience that took me to Barcelona, a city where architecture breathes in every corner. As an architect, I found my home in its streets and squares, but it was the unlimited beauty of its structures that forever changed my trajectory. The lens of my camera became my new means of expression, and with every click, I merged my architectural knowledge with my passion for capturing the essence of buildings. Today, through my lens, I seek to encapsulate the history and emotion behind each facade. Each image is a dialogue between human creativity and the caressing light. Thus, with the legacy of my grandfather, the experience of my friend, and the soul of architecture, I continue to write my story through the images I capture, inviting the world to see the beauty found at the intersection of form and light.
