Anachronistic business man

  Cecilia Colussi

I was walking in Kolkata, India, when I bumbed into this anachronistic businessman making phone calls with an unusual mobile phone. Our eyes crossed, for just one second, and I felt part of his world.

Growing up in the remarkably preserved medieval town of Padova, Cecilia has been breathing art since she was a child, surrounded by a quaint, though static, way of living. Thirsty of knowledge, she soon developed a genuine curiosity for everything that was far from her cultural heritage, devoting her travels to the study of anthropological aspects of diverse cultures with a focus on architecture. Far from the celebrated landmarks, Cecilia pursues places that were built for purpose but taken over by time. She celebrates the evolved aesthetic of sites once abandoned.
