PBF #02, Milano 2025

This slideshow serves as documentation of a Super 8 cartridge filmed in the Anna Del Bo Boffino in Milan in July 2024. Under the same premise of the first film of the project, five people gather in a park, this time around a plastic chair, and exchange their favorite pocketable books. Summer activities such as throwing a plane make their way into the film. Moving images are brought to a stop in their final form as slides and, as is the case for an image in a book, the viewer is forced to imagine their movement. This is the result of a collaboration between PocketBookFilms and milano based artist collective, Hercole. Participants: Davide Ausenda, Laura Salomoni, Martina Caruso, Margherita Piazza, Alexander Gabriel and Lucas Variz.

Lunario 2023

After hundreds of sleepless nights, I decided to film the full moon with my Super 8 camera and a roll of black-and-white film, believing it was the source and cause of my insomnia. The film was then imperfectly developed by hand, which created a tension between the two surfaces at play: the film and the moon. The title of this film was given to that roll by my dear friend Alexander Gabriel three years after I had filmed and discarded it. Only then, after an artist I respected had appreciated and named the work, did I decide to consider it a film.
