Home is Home (All Alone) is inspired by Gabriele Tinti’s verses about the Faun.
The Faun is a nature deity belonging to Roman mythology.
God of the countryside, woods and flocks, he has always symbolized the creative fullness, the power of life that in its overflow, exaltation and attainment of maximum intensity, turns into destruction and death.
The Faun seeks his place and refuge.
In this chaos he fights, builds, destroys, meets, leaves, falls in love, losing control.
He escapes from the normalcy of things in search of his identity.
The city does not want him and he does not want the city, and in the end, he rejoins nature through which he regains a balance with himself.
Guido Gazzilli’s project is a photographic compendium of an allegory: the metaphor between his life and that of the mythological figure of the faun.
