Dearest Joseph (2019 - 2021) is an epistolary tale set in Venice. A dialogue between two languages – photography and prose – and a third interlocutor: Joseph Brodsky. It is a story that unfolds after the end of a relationship, when love endures nonetheless. A time of emotional mourning. The after is never clearly defined; its edges remain uncertain, malleable — stretch marks of the soul. A year lasts a day; four seasons become four years, four journeys. Twenty-four hours.
