    Honorable Mention in Architecture / Cityscapes

"Il sole non vede mai l'ombra" is a long-term project. A kind of crossroads between my past as a researcher (I have a PhD in History of Religions) and my recent present as a photographer (https://www.jpace-photography.com/). My plan is simple: travel by train through Italy, but also France and Europe, in search of forgotten places and scenes. This unique journey - dreamlike! -, is a reflection on our relationship to time, culture and nature. After all, when our world and our history already have so much to offer, why settle for ephemeral or alternative realities?

Historian, I lived a long time at the rhythms of ancient mythologies. A rare peregrination that, having allowed me to probe our imagination, nourishes today my profession as a writer and photographer. For me, exploring the world has always been synonymous with freedom: a suspension point that breathes the exhilaration of our inner confines. I have excavated in Kurdistan Region; practiced sambo in Moscow; or harvested tea in the prefecture of Kagoshima... This wandering is who I am: it is that interrupted discourse of which the hours, echoes of my vile darkness, reveal my sauroctone soul.
