PORTFOLIOS
MARETERNO
"Mareterno is a lyrical body of work that manages to find grace without glossing over the rough spots. It doesn’t romanticize its place or subjects but rather shows that the real world can be complicated; that joy, solitude, beauty, and fragility can all exist together" Melissa Breyer
Mareterno is a photographic project made by Valeria Tofanelli and Lorenzo Catena that tells the story of a slow discovery of Ostia, the sea of Rome. The project is published as a book edited by Eyeshot, with an introduction of Melissa Breyer and is represented by Divario gallery.
