Il Trovatore | 2026 Italy

This project comes from my reading of Il Trovatore.
In this story, what interested me most was not love or war, but memory, revenge, and something that keeps returning again and again.
That is why I chose Azucena as the center of the book. To me, she is not only a character.
In the images, there are often birds, branches, fire, and small points of light.
I wanted to create a stranger feeling.

I hope this book feels like a night that you enter slowly, little by little.
