Description of idea
Describe your idea and concept of your work in relation to the festival outlines:
With Homeland i try to establish a dialogue with my island, Sardinia that I left five years ago to move in most fertile lands.
My island has a million and a half stalwart and a high unemployment rate, at the same time is very famous for its beautiful landscape and the sea.
I left my house with a bit of regret and with this photographic project I try to re-establish an intimate contact with my roots and play the beauty of the places dear to me.
What kind of communication approach do you use?
Analog camera
What are in your opinion concrete benefits to the society because of your communication?
I intend to show to the public my personal path of reconciliation with the place that I was born and at the same time that led me away
What did you personally learn from creating your submitted work?
i've learned to speak (write)of my homeland. thank you.
Why is your work, GOOD communication WORK?
Because the theme of migration and a sort of separation by own roots i think is universal.
Where and how do you intent do implement your work?
I intend to continue my work on my island and i want extend this work on other islands. How? taking picture with my lubitel.
Did your intervention had an effect on other Media. If yes, describe the effect? (Has other media reported on it- how? Were you able to change other media with your work- how?)
i dont' know if i understood the question, but i can say that my island needs to redemption by the Italian state that very often abandoned to itself, making military servitude and impoverishing the population
