Socotra,Yemen 2023. With this series, I aimed to capture the extraordinary primordial beauty of this remote island and its people. The emotions experienced are deep and genuine. Through each shot, I sought to represent the wonder and uniqueness of landscapes that seem to come from another planet. The images reflect an intimate connection with nature, including the overwhelming sense of being dwarfed by its powerful presence. This journey away from modern hustle evokes profound reflection and personal discovery.
I approached photography many years ago, initially to take photos during trips or special occasions. But then I felt the need to go beyond, to understand what photography truly meant. This led me to study at the Academy of Luciano Perbellini, a journey that completely transformed my approach to photography. Today, I don’t photograph just to capture a memory, but to express myself. Through images, I try to convey what words cannot say. I photograph because it makes me feel good; it’s my way to slow down, listen to myself, and observe the world around me.
