The Magic of Astrophotography – Luca Fornaciari

A place that will probably never be truly discovered, space brings new shapes, colours and forms each time a photographer looks into their lens. The genre requires dedication and patience, since one image can take up to a week’s worth of shots – an aspect that makes these shots even more magical.

A photographic essay of composite artworks, the series explores the fragile balance between humans and nature. Through the images, we see the thought process of the artist: the question is to find where exactly we fit into the ecological system. An interesting fact about each photo is that they are composed of 12 photos each.

When we get obsessed with something, we often get stuck in a cycle – this image depicts that darkness that an obsession can cast upon us, restlessly bound to one place.
