«Starting a journey, getting lost in the fog, dancing between the now and the unknown. Andrea Alessio wanders into the darkness - looking for the poetry of the night. While turning the pages of his book, one can feel the silence of the night. His photographs have a lyrical quality and cinematic character. In the end, that’s what it’s all about- taking a chance, not knowing how it will turn out, discovering beauty and finding illuminations in unexpected places. Before you, Santa Claus, life was like a moonless night is remarkable through its visual language and allows us to get lost in a world where everything is possible. Alessio captures the magic of the night and his sensibility shines through the pages. Simply start wandering towards the unknown, regardless if you will find Santa Claus or not.» [Jessica Backhaus ]
