Obsessed by the aesthetics of my photographs, I was driven to understand the basics features of an image, the very core of its structure. Underneath its meaning as a representation of the world, an image is a set of lines and shades; a bi-dimensional system of marks with its own expressive power.



I explored this approach during various flights over Afghanistan, playing with the shades and the lines of the rocky landscape and I produced this series of photographs originating from a simple act of enjoinment: the interaction between the landscapes and my frame.



I discovered these images at the beginning or at the end of few photographic stories. They were taken before or after being in a place to photograph and they were destined to be set aside since they are not directly part the story. But I became fond of these visions and I start growing the idea of collecting them in a exhibition and slowly, their meaning grew on me.
