About
I am an independent photographer and videomaker mainly focused on news coverage, reportage and documentary projects about social issues and climate change effects. Sometimes I still shoot architecture and events. Most of the time I'm active between Europe, Africa and the Middle East. . In 2019 was published my first photographic book from the reportage "No promised land", that shows for the first time the living conditions in the reception facilities for migrants, refugees and asylum seekers in Italy. In 2021, my project titled "Zaïm" was awarded second place at the Sony World Photography Awards. . I'm currently based in Beirut covering the conflict between Israel and Palestine from aspects involving Lebanon and Palestinians on this side. I remain always available to travel in case of need.

4.0 Barça or Barzaq, plundered sea
In Senegal, more than one million people live from fishing. Local fishermen have long watched powerlessly as their seas are plundered by foreign industrial fishing boats. Tonnes of catches are transported and sold abroad every year, partly processed into fishmeal, which is used elsewhere as food on fish farms. The consequences of industrial fishing and the production of fishmeal and fish oil have an impact on the ecosystem and the health of local populations, further undermining those who have always lived off the sea. Greenpeace has long warned of long-term risks, such as food insecurity for millions of people. A large number of those attempting to migrate to Europe are in fact fishermen, forced to look elsewhere for sustenance for themselves and their families.

The advancing Sahel desertification
The north of Senegal, which includes the regions of Saint Louis and Fouta-Toro, is an area particularly exposed to climate change. Progressive desertification is a constant threat that strains the population, already used to dealing with difficult conditions. Shorter rainy seasons and more intense rainfall, together with increased anthropic pressure on an area already scarce in resources, are leading to progressive aridification and the desert sands gaining land. As soon as one moves away from the shores of the Senegal River, which marks the border with Mauritania, the land becomes dry and sterile, and finding water becomes for many the first of worries, but not the only one. This area is part of the Sahel, a climatic transition zone between the Sahara desert belt and the savannah. The difficulties of living are pushing more and more people to migrate elsewhere, and many hope to reach Europe.

A new front in Lebanon?
Reportage from the Palestinian refugee camp of Shatila, in southern Beirut, where more than 25,000 people live in a little less than one square kilometre. We wanted to understand how they experience what is currently happening in Israel and Gaza, after the attacks by Hamas on 7 October, 2023.

Sri Lanka tries to emerge from crisis and dreams of a different society
In the spring of 2022, numerous protests caused by an unprecedented economic and political crisis erupted in different parts of Sri Lanka. The demonstrations resulted in a mass movement against the government of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who fled the country in July. The new president chosen by parliament, Ranil Wickremesinghe, was himself suspected of corruption and has made no effort to address the situation. A yeaer after very little was changed: many people were on the brink of poverty and at risk of food insecurity. But the population continued to take to the streets to demand new elections and to dream of a different society.
