Tales from nowhere is a modern visual fairy tale, an invitation to embark on a powerful journey of insight into the inner places of the artist who faces the complexities of a difficult period resulting from burn-out syndrome by searching for a magical version of reality. The creative act that results in photography becomes an outlet, a cure and a refuge to counter everyday life, a means of finding oneself, exploring the most hidden emotions and revealing one's point of view on the world. Through a narrative reminiscent of the Wunderkammer, the photographer searches for traces of magic.
Pierluigi Ciambra is a visual artist born in Palermo in 1978. He currently lives and develops his projects in southern Italy.

He has always been fascinated by photography and believes it is the best way to tell a story, investigate reality and express his own point of view on the world.
