Myself in every stranger's eyes | Portraits

Finding a sense of what you see also means knowing how to distinguish between good and bad images, between those that set in motion transformations or block them ... Re-evaluate what is small, imperceptible, what belongs to the subjective sphere, that marks human being, his gender, his history, his face, his person: the ugly, the old resurface to visibility, after long-lasting removals and censures; behind the neutral gender a masculine and a feminine reappears and between one and the other, various ways of being man and woman take shape. Looking at what does not ask for a gaze, what does not live to draw eyes, but at everything, which is mild and silent and accompanies daily steps and gestures. Starting again from what we think we see every day, but we don’t look at anymore...

To look as if it was the first or the last time - Luigi Ghirri’s suggestion - giving meaning to what we see, putting things in order, taking clues, faint traces, propitious lights, unusual combinations, helping us not to take anything for granted. Photography allows you to live a great adventure of thought and gaze since the eye can return a second time on what it saw in order not to forget it, to understand it or, perhaps, just for the joy of seeing it again and can make us see reality in a different way". From "Photography as therapy" by Anna D'Elia, Meltemi 1999

Myself in every stranger's eyes | Universality

The power to narrate, or to block other narratives from forming and emerging, is very important to culture and imperialism, and constitutes one of the main connections between them. Most important, the grand narratives of emancipation and enlightenment mobilized people in the colonial world to rise up and throw off imperial subjection; in the process, many Europeans and Americans were also stirred by these stories and their protagonists, and they too fought for new narratives of equality and human community.

Culture and Imperialism - Edward W. Said

Mahmoud Darwish

I am from there. I am from here. I am not there and I am not here. I have two names, which meet and part, and I have two languages. I forget which of them I dream in.

Myself in every stranger's eyes | Travelling

”You can walk millions of miles in a single life, without ever scratching the surface of places and without learning anything from the people just touched. Moving around is easy, work often dictates it, or you fly on vacation to the other side of the hemisphere to send postcards, take slides, buy souvenirs for friends and family, and come back identical as when you started your journey. Traveling with eyes shelled on the wonders of others is useless when the soul remains closed in the safe box of your house. You can do a real journey even by walking through a neighborhood of your city, where people, come from afar driven by need, which does not mean they are absolutely poor, live or survive". From "Walking" by Pino Cacucci, Feltrinelli 1998

"Travelling — it gives you home in thousand strange places, then leaves you a stranger in your own land." — Ibn Battuta

Strangers passing in the street By chance two separate glances meet And I am you and what I see is me And do I take you by the hand And lead you through the land And help me understand The best I can

Myself in every stranger's eyes | Glance

“This is the beauty of photography: if you commit yourself with the noble intention of using the lens of your camera as a naked arbiter of truth, you inevitably find yourself with a collection of bombastic and artificial images, which cannot penetrate any secret. The best shots are always accidental. Think of the violent portraits of Weegee’s New York streets, or even the famous image of Capa’s Spanish Republican, his arms outstretched like a crucifix as the bullet hits him in the back. The masterpieces of these artists were born from a spontaneous marriage between a great technique and the simple fact of being there. Chance is all, in photography. You can spend hours waiting for the right moment without ever grabbing it, and then find that the few shots you attempted while waiting for it show a spontaneity that is entirely absent from your refined composition studies. Rule number one of artistic expression is: the right moment is not something you choose, but something you stumble upon, hoping that your finger is on the shutter button".

From "Death of a Photographer" by Douglas Kennedy, Rizzoli 1997

Myself in every stranger's eyes | Simplicity of life

Perhaps it is something wrong with our religion, both Christian and Moslem, which has forgotten the holiness of the seasons in their fruitfulness, and has ceased to honour with proper ceremonies the mysterious birth and growth of the things whereby we live: so that we have come to consider human values only, and have left it to the peasant to look upon the world in perspective. Baghdad Sketches - Freya Stark
