Straniera

My recent series “Straniera” was taken pre-corona virus Italy. In english “straniera” translates to foreigner or stranger. Because of my strong Italian upbringing, many times i felt like a foreigner in my own country. It took me going to Italy to realize how American I am. I’m drawn to subjects going about their ordinary daily routine and mundanity. It’s fascinating how it feels as if the world around me is framed for a movie, whether it’s unusual moments or the way lighting falls on a subject at the right time and place.
