The Hippocampus is part of the brain center which controls the memory. The emotional belief based on the fear that memory will be lost, led me, unconsciously at first, consciously later, to photograph with the ultimate purpose that the photographic creation is a visual diary. By collecting images, I essentially build a coded memory map. A map which eventually decodes it, escapes its prime role and leads to an inner journey of exploring the time and the emotions that it creates in its course. A management of fear, loss, repetition, guilt.
