DYSTOPIA

Dystopia is a series specifically arranged with the aim to highlight the dystopian aspect of contemporary urban landscapes. A personal interpretation of the cities we live in aimed to enhance the sci-fi facet of modernity. A statement on individuality over dehumanizing multitudes. We often crave the future, but if we care to observe our surroundings, we probably realize the future is here, now.

Photographer

Francesco Romero

I’m a former musician and producer whose current artistic output is photography. I’m based mostly in Italy and I focus on themes of absence, decay and isolationism from a graphical and geometrical point of view. I’m fascinated by the dystopian aspect of everyday life.

I like to decontextualize details, landscapes, architecture, allowing them to stand alone as alien images. 90% of my shots are music inspired, especially from northern electronica, drone music and Detroit / German techno, but I’m also massively influenced by early US hardcore-punk and Industrial.
