“The more Leonia expels goods, the more it accumulates them.”
–Italo Calvino, The Invisible Cities (1972)
I’m so happy to share the beautiful article that
@lorea.ll and
@bartolomeo_sala wrote about this project that I shot in Albergheria, Sicily.
You can find the full article in the link in bio on
@italysegreta website, and here is a little extract:

Serra was drawn to that in-betweenness, the market’s function as a final European stop for objects bound for the Global South, and the way its clutter reflects a system that produces more than it can ever absorb.”
