Sant’Alvise
“A good picture is born from a state of grace. Grace becomes manifest when one is free from conventions, free as a child in his first discovery of reality. The game is then to organize the triangle“.
Sergio Larrain
In the rat’s alley
“E se tutto questo bujo, quest’enorme mistero, nel quale indarno i filosofi dapprima specularono, e che ora, pur rinunziando all’indagine di esso, la scienza non esclude, non fosse in fondo che un inganno come un altro, un inganno della nostra mente, una fantasia che non si colora?”.
Luigi Pirandello
The Butcher
“I thought I had no heart. I find I have, and a heart doesn’t suit me. Somehow it doesn’t go with modern dress. It makes one
look old. And it spoils one’s career at critical moments”.
Oscar Wilde
Strange Life
“The truth, once love has failed, looks like a skeleton abandoned in a meadow: explicit, ordered and, in the end, almost pleasant. It had always been there, but covered with flesh, images and feelings”.
Banana Yoshimoto
Through the Fog
“Parks and gardens are the quintessential intimate landscapes. People use them all the time, leaving their energy and memories behind. It’s what’s left behind that I like to photograph“.
Michael Kenna
Along the Road
“We all believe we can choose our own path from among the many alternatives. But perhaps it’s more accurate to say that we make the choice unconsciously”.
Banana Yoshimoto
