TRASH-TRACES / RIFIUTI TRACCE

The waste produced by our daily life is a mirror of our society. This series narrates the life of 8 migrant families in Italy through the garbage produced in their home in 5 days of normal life. Each image portrays a square meter of garbage and is printed in the same size, to offer the observer an image that is a 1: 1 reproduction of reality.

Austria, China, Iran, Argentina, Ukraine, Morocco, Senegal and Bangladesh are the countries of origin of the families involved in the project.
