Postcard of a Traveller
As an international student, moving from a little city in Italy to a metropolis like Vancouver has been a big deal. As soon as I saw this city, I absolutely fell in love with it. I love how you can have the mountains, the ocean and the skyscrapers all in the same place. I wanted to show Vancouver through my eyes, the eyes of a new, amazed visitor. I needed to find a place where nature and buildings merged together to create a unique view. I decided to take a panoramic picture in order to better show all the different characteristics of Vancouver, a land that, in a few months, has become a second home for me.

Social Media Influence
The driving force behind the creation of my work was to get a message across. I want people to think about how they see the environment around them. I want them to notice if they are distracted and not attentive to the beauty of it. I took a photo of someone in a beautiful forest but they were too distracted taking a picture of it for social media to admire it. Hopefully, my work will inspire viewers to be more mindful of the environment that surrounds them, especially since we live in such a beautiful place.
