Wheels and Waves

“Wheels and Waves” Freedom, Flesh & Fuel. This is a raw and sun-soaked collection born in Bali, where my passions collide motorcycles, surfboards, palm trees, the beach, and the wild energy of girls and speed.

But the soul of this series goes deeper, rooted in my childhood in Puglia, where my father and my godfather ran a windsurfing school. I grew up on those beaches, barefoot, windblown, surrounded by motorbikes parked in the sand, surfboards scattered around, and beautiful topless women sunbathing under the southern Italian sun. That world, full of freedom and sensuality, shaped me, as a human, and as an artist.

Years later, in Bali, I found the same spirit again — and captured it. Many of the photographs were shot not only across Bali, but also throughout Indonesia — from the remote surf breaks of the Mentawai Islands to the rugged coastlines of West Java.

These images aren’t just photographs, they’re a tribute to the carefree, sun-drenched chaos that formed my soul.
