The apparent roughness of the street, of real life, is reflected in Giacomo Schmitz’s pictures.

In the harshness of this everyday world, his photos show the vulnerability of the individual. Wherever we all – in time and place – have the same vulnerabilities and prides. Now, in the past and in the future.​
