This body of work is my documented journey living in a new place, deeply observing individuals in public spaces, going about their daily lives. The images I have captured display various cities throughout Italy, I have had the chance to thoroughly explore. People watching and seeking intimate moments of curiosity was my ultimate goal for this work. Each photo has its own story. As a child living abroad in Tokyo, Japan, and traveling and seeing the world, was what really sparked my interest in documenting the curious moments of my own journeys. I have always been passionate about studying the places where people go and what they do, and now I am able to unveil them, within the pages of this book.
