Forever young I wanna be

• Photographer
  Eleonora Pecorella

This series of photos is a visual reflection on the actual favorable life expectancy, incredibly increased in the last 100 years, and the pervasive hedonism of our society, which creates a paradoxical situation of non-acceptance of what looks old. This behavior is probably more visible in women, where aging is often denied turning to beauty treatments and plastic surgery. Through old and dried flowers and fruits I want to celebrate the beauty of nature, even when it’s aged. I used a macro lens to create this series.
