Shooting in Venice can be a tough one. There are so many images of the city around, that one is taken by a sense of deja-vu almost every time the camera rise to one's eye; Venice served as inspiration for so many iconic images in the past that at first I was a bit weary on what and how to shoot. I decided to wander around lesser known areas of the city, looking for ways of describe the interaction between man, sea and land, and show how this informs daily life in Venice; trying to show with my Leica M9 the poetry and the difficulties as well that the city can respectively offers and impose to those who live there.
