HEAD OF THE LION, CESURA PUBLISH 2018

You just have to jump. But it doesn’t hurt, trust me.

The genuine adolescence of eight kids riding their skateboards along shabby Sicilian roads is what attracted me to get close to their lives and dedicate six years photographing them. Their carefreeness days reached the end on the Head of the Lion. A lava rock cliff from where they would jump off to show that they were no longer kids.

Head of the Lion was published by CESURA PUBLISH in November 2018. In the same year the project was selected by British Journal of Photography for Ones to Watch talent issue.
