  • Wonderful Woman

    I began to discover and understand that photography was on my skin, also thanks to her, my wonderful woman, my favorite model, my grandmother Maria. This is a tribute to her, who I miss immensely. A series of photographs taken from 2006 to 2013 . Ho iniziato a scoprire e capire che la fotografia era…

  • The lost ring

    My mother in law and her thoughts, after finding a ring that she thought she lost years ago. This was not just a turquoise ring for her, I think it was much more, I could read it in her eyes, she was surprised to see that ring again. Who knows what story that turquoise stone…

  • Old memories

    There was a time when postcards were written, wildflowers were collected and preserved among the most precious memories, in a box or among the pages of a good book. Over time, those flowers became more and more fragile and no doubt only the scent would remain. The postcards remained intact, perhaps for those who in…

  • Memories

    Old photographs have always fascinated me, but what seduced me most was listening to the protagonists of the photos that told me the memories of that moment. That small piece of paper was capable of reviving dormant memories, hidden in some corner of the mind but never forgotten. In this way my journey towards photography…

  • Frozen Frames

  • Backlit souls

    © Margherita Vitagliano 2020 On a sunny day, looking at my postcards of the early twentieth century, I discovered  that I could have a completely different view of them backlight, the words superimposed on an image: backlit souls like us now. In una giornata di sole, guardando le mie postcards di inizio novecento ho soperto che…

We found my grandfather’s wallet with these photos, I asked my grandmother to hold it over her heart to represent “endless love, love forever.” Mia nonna mi ha mostrato una scatola…

  • Life….what a joke!

    This was Marjorie a wonderful person that I met here in England. Every time we met, she didn’t miss the opportunity to talk about his great and only love that had passed away few years before, unfortunately I could read in her eyes that she was ready to meet her love once again, for ever.…

  • Those hidden wounds

    My initial thought was to lay bare the wounds that each of us carries inside, here comes the title: Those hidden wounds. Then as I was putting together the project I’ve come up with another interpretation. Some of these postcards are Eduardian age, sewing them up together gave me almost the impression to find pieces…

  • June 24th 1905

    I became a shameless thief of other people’s memories, I slipped into lives that didn’t belong to me, I have read correspondences not mine, I looked at unknown faces who lived over a century ago, I looked into their eyes and I have tried to imagine their past. Every piece of this puzzle hides life,…

Intrappolata dagli anni che passano, schiacciata dai freddi inverni ma riscaldata dall’autunno, nella speranza che il sole primaverile possa presto sciogliere questo…
