Projects

Alongside commissioned work, I pursue long-term projects. They are where my way of seeing takes shape, and what I learn there flows into everything else.

Chronogenics

“Chronogenics” is a series of portraits in triptych. It was shown in a solo exhibition at the Medina Art Gallery in Rome, in May and June 2025.

Il proprio posto (One’s Own Place)

“Il proprio posto” (One’s Own Place) is a series of environmental portraits of people photographed at their workplace: a personal trainer, a musician, a barman who owns his bar, a mechanic, a chef and a ceramicist. Shot in Umbria and Sardinia between 2018 and 2020.

Asfalto e Pietre (Asphalt and Stones)

“Asfalto e Pietre” (Asphalt and Stones) is a motorcycle journey from the Maremma to the Dolomites, told by Francesco Grigori Di Bene in a book of texts and photographs, with a foreword by Claudio Biferale. The series was presented in 2023 at FAT in Terni for CavourArt. Since early 2026, eleven landscape photographs from the series have been on permanent display in the Emergency Department waiting room of Policlinico Gemelli in Rome.
