A Hidden Gem

Matteo S.

  • This photograph aims to highlight the beauty and complexity of the city and its inhabitants. The man on the bike, moving towards the camera, represents the constant motion and energy of the city, while shadows of the alleyway symbolize the hidden and unknown aspects of the urban environment. However, the only way to find these hidden gems is through adventures outside of your comfort zone. The soft glow in the photograph adds a sense of mysticism and wonder, inviting the viewer to pause and consider the beauty in the overlooked and often-ignored spaces of the city. It represents how sometimes the most overlooked things can bring the most beauty to our eyes.

  • Exploring allows me to discover new places, cultures, and perspectives and brings excitement and adventure to my life. It has opened my eyes to nature and going outside of my comfort zone.
