When I was in Palermo for the first time in 2015, I visited the “Palermo Panorama” exhibition by Mauro D’Agati. Afterwards, I wanted to meet the photographer, so I gave him a call. Mauro and I got together, had a lovely conversation, and then he invited me to stay with him next time around. That’s how I came to travel to Palermo various times over the following years, and on my daily walks through this fascinating city, I began to take pictures.
