About this picture
Where new meets old. During the pandemic of 2020 a street vendor of African decent walks along the side walk as a young European women passes by on an e-scooter. To me this captures our changing world so elegantly. A world full of uncertainty and promise. A world in which the internet has created a borderless society yet the under the guise of the pandemic nations are attempting to become isolationist. Ignoring the lessons of past civilizations and their empires from the Egyptians and Chinese, to the Romans and Ottomans, all of which turned inward as their collapse became imminent.

More Tips on Roman Forum from Travelers
Rome
- Between 2008 and 2009 I realized a photographic campaign on the artifacts of industrial archeology. Observing those spaces, I thought of the function that they had in the past in relation to the city, to their present state of emptiness, abandon, and ruin, and how a community can make them function and rethink their use. The project âRomantico Metropolitanoâ concentrates on some âunresolvedâ spaces, from an uncertain future, or better, from the future in which another conflict would generate, in fact, conflict places.

Rome
- Loneliness, depression, and sociability. If you walk around the streets in any city in the world - youâll notice those old, tiny people. Probably slowly walking home with a stick or small bag. They wear old-fashioned, worn-out clothes, donât have a phone and probably donât have enough money to afford a better life. Most people are walking by them and think that theyâll never be the same when they become old. Probably theyâll say: âehh Iâm only 25, I have so much time until I become 83â But actually, they donât.

Rome
- What do you miss? During the 2020 pandemic people cities and countries around the world allowed their rulers to take away basic freedoms such as a mother walking her daughter along a riverside to intimate social interactions. Later mandating face masks be worn outdoors to prevent the virus from spreading whilst ignoring the choking air pollution whose symptoms the virus exasperated.

- I had been walking through Rome for a couple days looking for the right scene to capture the beautiful architecture in such an iconic city. This image really stuck out to me due to its simplicity, yet complexity of what I had been attempting to photograph. What I love about the image is the gradient created from the shadows near the streets which complement the apartments lit above.

Rome
- The Mausoleum of Hadrian, usually known as Castel SantâAngelo is a towering cylindrical building in Parco Adriano, Rome, Italy. It was initially commissioned by the Roman Emperor Hadrian as a mausoleum for himself and his family. The building was later used by the popes as a fortress and castle, and is now a museum. The structure was once the tallest building in Rome.

Rome
- A city built upon a city, civilizations but atop civilizations. Nothing is created in isolation, everything has a past from which it changed and grew. As we deal with the ramifications of the 2020 pandemic from economic collapse to the prospect a lost generation, one has to consider what will those of the future build out of the rubble that was our civilization?

- Ponte Vittoria Emanuelle II in itâs nightlighting is a beautiful bridge crossing the Tiber in Rome. I saw the bridge with St. Peterâs church in the background and just wanted to freeze the moment in time. The only way to capture the beaty it deserved was by taking an HDR image.
