With the same respect and loving gaze of a man who knows the country inside out, Turconi also documents the many facets of everyday life. We see life as it is, colourful and diverse, with small edges and big obstacles, but above all the optimism, the charm and the endless creativity of the people remain. The tranquil landscapes are like poetic scenes. They intrigue, delight, make you dream or look back nostalgically.
