You gotta fight for your right to live.
Every day these little heroes fight to survive.
This photographic project wants to give a face and a voice to these small wild animals that populate our land: insects and spiders, often despised by humans. Little heroes on whom the survival of man depends, little heroes who live in the fields and who reveal their mantles, of wonderful colors, only to those who with care and respect take the time to know them.
I have spent hundreds of hours in the fields, I have literally lived with these little creatures, observing their habits, how they sleep, how they hunt, how they work. In some cases the subjects have been searched for years and have shown themselves only for a few moments. Moments full of emotion for me, even if sometimes the shots have remained impressed only in my mind.
