Description - The Thin Line by Giada Ripa
Giada Ripa's photos form an itinerary of landscapes traversing Italy, North to South, focusing on five regions: Friuli, Lombardy, Tuscany, Abruzzo, and Sicily. This account is not limited to a photographic album; rather, it calls upon champions from each area who, through engaging interviews, describe the positive impact on its territory of the commitment of an important local business. Concrete examples of this cooperation are the environmental revival carried out in the Prealpi Giulie Nature Reserve in Friuli, the conservation of local species of flowers carried out with the cooperation of the Botanical Gardens in Palermo, and stretches of land made available and leased free of charge. Thus, The Thin Line represents a hope, but also an awareness of the territory and of those who not only inhabit it now, but will come to inhabit it in the future. Text in English and Italian AUTHOR: Giada Ripa, photographer. After studying at ICP in New York, she worked as a correspondent for the Grazia Neri agency. She then devoted herself to personal projects that took her around the world. Among her most significant works: The Yokohama Project 18672016; Displacement, the first photographic book produced by Moleskine, and Imagining Ourselves: Voices of a New Generation of Women.
