Location: Trieste, Italy
The exhibition will be held from October 25th – December 15, 2024. The Exhibition is part of the official calendar of the 11th edition of the Trieste Photo Days - International Festival of Photography. Enriching the festival experience is Trieste Photo Fringe, the festival's satellite photo circuit that showcases the best of international urban photography at selected venues in the city center. 


About the Exhibition
Buildings are not static objects with five facades, four side walls and the roof. They are lively, dynamic sculptures. The windows are their eyes, that reveal a part of their soul. The open doors are talking with us, inviting us to come in, to hear their inner stories. And the graphic layout of bricks, of glass, of wood or whatever the genuine architects create are their eye-catching clothes, which make our cities, our urban spaces more beautiful, more vibrant. In architecture, the term facade refers to the outwardly visible wall surfaces of a building, including windows, doors and the likes. Materials are often concrete, glass, wood, brick or masonry made of sand-lime bricks. But for me, they are not just that inanimate materials or elements. They are like the face of a human, like the shape of body, or the clothes, which communicate with the other humans and tell stories. “That’s why in most of my photographs, I do not show an overall view of a building, but a look at the details and particularities. Just like when we approach a person and have a chance to look closer, we see their beautiful eyes, we hear their unique voice from those open lips, or sometimes just an interesting pattern of the dress they wear attracts us.”
