These photos want to highlight the beauty of Italian opera culture, especially at a time like the one we are living in this present, when Italian theaters are closed due to the pandemic.

Professional stage photographer, I was born in Monza (Italy) in 1981 and I have achieved my artistic and professional education at Accademia Teatro alla Scala in Milan, where I obtained my diploma in 2011.
I collaborate with many Italian theaters and companies, for which I documented important productions and events, such as Accademia Teatro alla Scala, Piccolo Teatro Milano, As.Li.Co. Fondazione Teatro Fraschini Pavia, Opera Lombardia, Fattore K. Furthermore, I have documented important Italian festivals, including Festival Verdi, Puccini Festival, Spoleto Festival.
I took part in several exhibitions, e.g. “Album di compleanno - 1813-2013, La Scuola di Ballo dell’Accademia Teatro alla Scala”, promoted by Fondazione Bracco and Accademia Teatro alla Scala; "Tableaux Vivants" at Orvieto Foto festival in 2018; "Space and bodies in the Italian opera" at Lishui Foto Festival in 2019.
In 2019 I became ambassador of Italian culture in China.
I won the gold at Tokyo International Foto Awards in 2019 and I won the bronze and an honorable mention at Tokyo International Foto Awards in 2020.
Further several publications on national and international newspapers, such L'Opera.
