Il lungo addio
Project description:
PROJECT BY FEDERICA COCCIRO AND FRANCESCA DEL BOCA
Il Lungo Addio (The Long Goodbye) is a photographic project born in 2017 – and still ongoing – that deals with euthanasia and end of life. But how to address and make more understandable such a complex issue, usually debated only in newspapers and in courtrooms?
The result is a story with many voices, often diametrically opposed, composed of the different personal stories of the hopelessly ill or their loved ones. A profound and delicate narration, which uses an authorial look to bring a human issue closer – even before than social – more urgent than ever. Poetic images express themselves, flanked by short texts written specifically for each photograph and that draw inspiration from each photograph. An embrace between words and images that succeeds in talking about great current themes, investigating at the same time death and suffering as well as life and love.
