This is one photo belonging to the work of Massimiliano Tommaso Rezza.
I was immediately drawn to this photo along with his others both because I have a personal fondness for black-and-white imagery and the fact that his photos are extremely striking–so striking that it is almost indescribable as to why they are so striking in the first place. Rather than just photos, Rezza’s photographs seem more like poetic slices of simple daily life in all forms, depicting despair, romance, emptiness, desolation, self-destruction.
The rest of Rezza’s work can be seen upon clicking on the above photograph.
