Filicudi - l'altro Volto

Digital Photography, Portrait, Digital, 90x135cm
The Nape it's a part of the body, that normally we don't look at. To improve it we don't spent time or money but between the air and the neck, there is something that idenfity ourself. Try to observe the nape of an old man that worked for years the soil or passed most of his time on the sea: it can looks like a river, a tutle or a crocodile skin.
If you observe a nape, you will imagine a face. That is what i did in Filicudi, one of the eolian island, where i decided to live. During the year there are only 200 inhabitants. their Nape (and faces) have wind, sun, sea and voulcanic energy signs that is coming continuously from this "Paradisland" as a 65 years old german man, Gilsbert that is living here in a cave, define. i need time to take a picture of a Nape: time to know the person, to interact with him or her. This is the timeless island

thanks a lot! that's a different aspect of a tiny island. Effettivamente ricorda un nonno ma il cappello ne identifica lo spirito fanciullesco! buon ferragosto!
