Maurizio Frullani. Seven years in Eritrea

With his analogue SLR, Frullani creates a narration of people, of environments, of relationships, through intense portraits of this land of Africa. The environment of houses, courtyards, workshops become an integral part of a story in which women, children, elderly people, artisans are placed in a natural way showing with simplicity their lives and themselves. The objective does not appear to be lived as an intruder, but as something you can rely on because the photographer has the ability to represent their community in the respect of its rhythms of life. Here is that ancient gestures and outdated works, but also deep family relationships and simple children’s games are the ordinary that the shots of Smoothies make extraordinary.
