Miami Skin is one of the few “Still photo” project realized only in Black and White. It’s not a traditional collection of photos about the architecture of Miami and Miami Beach. It’s rather a quick journey between its own skin from the Art Deco District to the modern skyline of our days. Stripes, circles, squares, reflections show only some details of important buildings but they all have the power to arise emotions and unexpected shapes and volumes inside us.
A final touch is reserved for nature skin from the ocean to the tropical vegetation.
You need now to make an effort of imagination to discover and compose all pictures and eventually frame it in your own mind.
