“A photograph is not an ideology that distorts minds, it is a seed: if it moves something, it does it slowly, growing inside the person looking at it”. Paolo Pellegrin’s words reveal the meaning behind his way of observing the world, with an anthropological approach that gathers material in the field, then presented with a vision that is always necessarily personal. His gaze spans the line separating humanity from inhumanity, penetrating spaces defined by barriers, and not only physical ones but more especially cultural barriers. His photography is always an emotional evocation of a state of mind. When recounting the other, he plunges emerges into human conflicts that mainly generate tragedies, widely echoed by the huge amount of images we are exposed to every day. In a conversation with Roberto Koch, Paolo Pellegrin will discuss the subject of borders and conflict, reflecting on the walls we build, starting with those within ourselves.
