EARLY WORKS

They first sharpened their photographic skills on a large-format Sinar camera in their Milan apartment transformed in a photo studio.
The process was inherently slow, calm, and intimate. 
“Sometimes we could spend the whole day photographing intensely,” the pair say. “There was little contact with the outside world.”
