Alessandro Romito is a photographer born in Brescia, Italy, in 1988. In 2015, he started working as accountant in his family’s firm. He approached the photographic medium in 2017, after finishing his university studies in economics. His interest in social and political issues led him to travel in search of stories to tell, such as the Palestinian issue and youth demonstrations in Hong Kong. In 2018, he won first prize in the Whashington Post’s international photography competition with the picture “Iron Dome”, taken in Tel Aviv. In 2021, he is hired by a local NGO to document the humanitarian work done by Celim and No One Out, two organisations that works in Zambia. Through direct and unfiltered photography, he constantly tries to interpret the relationship between human beings and their environment.
