My name is Stefano Agnello and I come from a small village, called Brolo, in Sicily. I am living in Zurich since five years working as a chemist in pharmaceutical research. I am an amateur photographer who started becoming interested in photography in 2016. In particular, I liked how the emotions and feelings could be captured and transferred through photography. Nowadays I am really interested in pursuing long-term projects with the aim to find my own visual language for developing consistent series of photos.

Facing the darkness “You don't find light by avoiding the darkness.” This was my approach in this series, I tried to find and emphasize light in the dark spaces. Light and dark, and so black and white, symbolise good and evil. Therefore, this was also a personal search for light, deciding to face the darkness that everybody bears and often avoids to deal with it. It has been almost a cathartic process to show that the beauty can reside and be found even in the gloomiest places. Furthermore, I find that a silhouette, a shadow or few enlightened elements of a body can be more significant than seeing everything clearly and distinctly, since life is unclear and ambiguous, a mix of dark and bright zones. As a result, I do believe that the light, and so the good, is more powerful and meaningful right in the darkest places.
