The palace of crossed destinies

"The new Corviale also called" Serpentone "is a building about 1 km long that rises on the western outskirts of Rome, born in the late '70s to deal with the housing crisis. Since its birth this place has been synonymous with decay and crime especially for a managerial malaise, so much so that it has become one of the symbolic neighborhoods of Rome. History sees men and women catapulted into a place without infrastructure, still wearing the wounds caused by the tearing of the mass eviction, forced to live together by force or for reason. People who have had to reorganize their lives with great difficulty, trying to reinvent it, to color it, to live it with new rules and above all with do-it-yourself. My intent was to give a voice and make known the human of the weakest or rather the "invisible" ones that are often forgotten, or talked about in a stereotypical way .

Aldo Feroce

Aldo Feroce, born in Rome1957. I started photography in 1976 at age 19 with a film camera and self-taught. I learned to print in the darkroom, developing film and printing in black and white. Subsequently, for about twenty years, I dedicated myself to wedding photography services until eight years ago I started dedicating myself to a different gender with intent to create something that could satisfy me on an emotional level. The passion shifts to current social and documentary themes. --- AWARDS PONCHIELLI AWARD 2023 Finalist "The Palace of crossed destinies" BARTUR PHOTO AWARD 2023 Finalist " Before night falls" KOLGA TIBLISI AWARD 2022 documentary story Winner "The Palace of crossed destinies" BARTUR PHOTO AWARD 2022 Face of Humanity second place "The Palace of crossed destinies" BIFOTO AWARD 2022 Winner "The Palace of crossed destinies" WORLD REPORT PHOTO 2022 finalist
