Part of a four-volume series
A richly atmospheric, diaristic photobook that intertwines urban exploration, personal memory and spatial documentation, set against the wintery backdrop of Venice. It begins in the quiet predawn hours, with the photographer alone in the alleyways, and gradually fills with students, workers and tourists. At its heart is Palazzo Lezze Michiel, Silvia Fiorucci's historic residence in Campo Santo Stefano, both subject and studio: an old wooden boat on trestles in the entrance hall, peeling wallpaper, piles of rubble, painted murals and cold, diffused light evoke a state of transition. The book is structured like an aesthetic game: on the left the exteriors of the city, on the right the interiors of the palace, matched by colour, composition, scale and shape. Made possible by the initiative and support of Silvia Fiorucci and La Società delle Api.
