Radici is a project, born during Covid lockdown, with which I'm exploring traditional Italian cuisine, made of poor ingredients. I draw inspiration from Flemish painting of the 1600s, from monastic and peasant life. The plant choice enhances life and rebirth as a personal response to the pandemic tragedy. A journey through time between art and cuisine guided by the emotions aroused by the intimate memories of each of us.

I was born in 1972 in Milan. I approaches photography only in 2003, approaching Street photography and reportage. I participated in several group exhibitions in the amateur field and in 2011 I was selected for the book Passione Italia published by FIAF and Seat Pagine Gialle in collaboration with the CIFA of Bibbiena, on the occasion of the celebrations for the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy. Since 2013 I have turned my interest to food photography collaborating with Chef Maria Riva, Starred Chef Pietro Leemann, Chef. Simone Salvini, National Italian Chefs and Italian Federation
