Chilean lumberjacks have to face isolation, bad weather condition and scarcity of resourses. Spending long isolated days they live continuous psychological introspections on existence, on spirituality and on the relationship with nature. A continuous struggle against everything and against themselves... fighting to survive.
My name is Simone Francescangeli, I'm a self-made photographer. I come from the Italian province. I picked up the camera with the intention of being able to find a way to express myself in 2010 and just try to tell the life stories of men closely, especially the ordinary ones, related to the need to be able to live day per day. Until now I brought footstes around in Italy, in Europe, South America and Africa.
