Salvatore Matarazzo – Street Photography — Versilia, Italy | LensCulture

With street photography, I share the vision I have of my country through the faces of those who live here. My approach is extreme and direct. I get very close, physically, to the people I photograph. With the flash I try to highlight that mask of vanity that each of us has built as self-defense. However, thanks to moments of vulnerability and the reactions that the camera captures in the faces, the images are seasoned with a touch of dramatic irony, and a grotesque vision of real humanity.
