“I am living in the land between my visions and reality.”

Fabrizio is an Italian writer, director and photographer born in Naples and based in London.

His work focuses on intimate, emotionally driven stories that explore identity, memory and the quiet complexities of human relationships.

In 2023, he wrote and directed his first short film, Would You Rather, a coming-of-age story centered on acceptance and self-expression, which was screened at a number of international festivals. His second short film, Those Sage Days (2026), explores childhood bonds, unspoken emotions, and the fragile ways memory reshapes what we hold onto.

Alongside filmmaking, Fabrizio has published several photobooks, and his photographic work has been exhibited in the UK, Italy, and Japan. His background in photography informs a visual approach rooted in observation, atmosphere and emotional subtlety.

Limited edition prints are available for sale as well. For more information please contact me.
