Marco Barbon

His biography only says:

“Born in Rome in 1972
Lives and works in Paris”

These are pictures from his series Asmara Dream, which he says “The subject of my book is the city of Asmara, more precisely that particular sensation of suspended time and subtle melancholy that struck me the first time I was there. The Italian flair and beauty of the city is something you can not forget after having visited Eritrea.”
