Climate Strikes in Scotland

Reportage
Scotland, 2019
Featured at the Venice Biennale “Makers of our Time” exhibition
Featured by Extinction Rebellion and SYCS

The city of Glasgow (UK) has many active climate movements that gather people from all ages and background. I documented the climate strikes in March and February 2019 as a volunteering photographer for these organizations. Pictures from the local strike on February 15th and the global strike on March 15th organized by Fridays for future, the movement born following the action by Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg. In June 2019, I spent four days camping in front of the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh with Extinction Rebellion, documenting the week of protest raising awareness about the climate bill.

Protests in support of Palestine

Reportage
Italy, 2023-2025

An extraordinarily participated moviment in solidarity with Palestine erupted from October 2023 in Italy, with grassroots movements involved supporting the cause. A diverse range of protesters took to the streets in local and nation-wide called strikes and marches. The protests for Palestine show a peculiar unity among different generations, classes, and origins, and a strong will to intertwine a consistent number of themes (anti-racism, migration rights, anti-imperialism, indigenous resistance) in the same struggle.
