SILENCE IN THE DUST

(Kolkata, India) - The first ray of the sun and a rare moment of tranquility caress the face of this living being. A bit of silence, something that here in Kolkata is almost legend. That silence between mother and child. The silence that allows you to perceive the the heart din.

Born and raised in a little village in the Italian Alps, now based in Barcelona, Mauro already felt from young age the desire to tell. He discovered that the camera was the right tool for him, the eye through which he could speak to the world. An instrument that began to walk by his side towards a long journey of discovery. “Although it is difficult to express, I think that the photograph represents my way of speaking and what I try to do through my language is to capture the sense of what I breathe and touch with my hands. Not only in appearance but also, and especially, in the essence".
