Alberto Frigo has photographed everything,
yes evidently everything according to his wife. Everything he's touched with his right hand he photographs with a tiny camera he carries
in his left hand.
Some would suggest the Italian has been touched by the sun and there are those who think the guy might get a real job. Or even a life.
But Mr Frigo is determined to continue with his rather bizarre and obsessive project until he reaches retirement age in another
twenty five years.
He shoots around seventy six images a day.
You do the maths...

No lack of photos for his blog.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting that this man, though born in a rural mountain area in Italy is now living in Sweden, a forward looking country.
ReplyDeleteHis obsession and his inclusion in the Dublin exhibition which is showing not only a personal take on self life documentation, but concern around the trend towards "Big brother" surveillance by authorities.
His is an attempt at a playful approach to the dual subjects of our need to be wanted and concern about the increase of Government control of our lives.
Interesting too that he shuns Social Media.
I would like to meet him, and his long suffering wife too......Jennybee
I don't think my wife would allow that.

DeleteWhat an incredible waste of time & energy! How pitiful to spend one's life doing nothing that contributes to the welfare of others or serves a real purpose, & to die w/o any meaningful act to mark his brief journey on this earth. His tombstone can say little except, "I photographed my hand".
