For the observation and narration of the territory we live in and of the dynamics within, we use a measured and thoughtful approach, inherited from the tradition of documentary photography. Our main subjects are cities, suburban areas and landscapes – both human and natural. We record the changes occurring in these places to create an archive of these transformations. We believe in photography as a practice which can deliver an accurate vision of phenomenons commonly unnoticed. For this reason our projects investigate forgotten and changing places, apparently of no significance, but actually revealing their importance as traces of the human influence on landscape.
