I miei biglietti floreali sono ora disponibile anche da Fiori Cattori a Losone.

Abbiamo scelto biglietti ideali per la stagione e verranno sempre attualizzati.

Grazie di cuore a Fiori Cattori per amare le mie creazioni!

I have often thought about giving up social media, but then you have virtual encounters with real people with whom you immediately feel in harmony. Even at a distance, even if only online. These encounters make me happy and they make me change my mind. 

This exhibition is the result of an online meeting: thanks to Healing Photo Art - healingphotoart.org - and its creator Elaine Poggi, it was possible to devise a photography project at the Solarium retirement home in Gordola. A wall that speaks: photography and wellbeing in the residents' rooms.

The 15 selected images were printed and donated by the Healing Photo Art association and, after the exhibition, will be hung in the residents' rooms to bring joy and serenity.

In addition to the images from this project, you can see ten more of my photographs from the FloralFineArt floral project, works by the residents and photographs by photographer Renato Minoggio.

I would like to sincerely thank everyone involved: Elaine and Healing Photo Art for donating the prints, but especially for their human generosity; Laura and Sonia from the Solarium home who embraced the philosophy of Healing Photo Art by devising a project that everyone immediately loved. Last but not least, I would like to sincerely thank Graziano, who during a chat over dinner told me about Eliano, the director of Solarium, who enthusiastically accepted my proposal. I like to think about the twists and turns that led to this exhibition: it all started with my online research and that click that introduced me to Healing Photo Art...

A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!

I am truly honoured to be able to contribute to this important project.
Given my ‘hospital’ past, it immediately got under my skin 💛
When life's events lead you to meet beautiful people, thank you Elaine and The Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals.

I invite you to visit the association's website to get to know it better:

During the summer months I didn't spend much time on photography, but I did read a number of interesting articles and came across this alliance of photographers - both professional and amateur - while surfing the web. I immediately felt aligned with their thinking: perhaps it contributed to the fact that I was born and raised in a place full of natural wonders and respect for our environment has always been part of my education. I think it's sad that we have to make an alliance to promote principles that should be inherent in all of us, but if we look around us, our conscience does indeed need to be 'awakened'. I am also convinced that each of us, in our own small way, can make a contribution. After a few weeks of reflection, I decided to become a member of Nature First, to promote respectful thinking about our wonderful natural heritage.

I invite you to visit the webpage www.naturefirstphotography.org  and - why not? - sign up too .

I am participating in this exhibition with my Flowers of Life.

What an emotion to see my own photo as a giant picture, especially if the place is linked to many childhood memories. Great idea, Silarte Association! The exhibition of the grotto trail can be visited until autumn.
