SHADOWS ON PARADE

Shadows on Parade is a series of portraits; they are declinations of my imagery, unsatisfied desires, waits, silent attempts of redemption.
Sometimes they are dreams. More often they are prayers.
There is no scenario: the possible reality is a black box, antechamber of desire, abyss. There is no emptiness or total absence of life, but a summary of all the choices and possibilities, from which life's forms and shapes come from. And in that obscurity I weaved memories, exploring remembrances, instincts and desires. Due to the soft light figures appear like a revelation and the rest remains wrapped in the deep darkness, in the mistery.
I shot with the marvel of who can wait, the wait of a moment, the photographic one, the illuminated one of Caravaggio, the fatal one of Bacon.
There are no spectators, only witnesses.
