Fabio Fasiello was born in Salento, Apulia, to a family of merchants in 1995.
As a child, he began to learn about the world of photography and fell in love with it. During his university years, he moved to Rome to study Modern Languages and Literature at the University of Rome Tor Vergata where he graduated in 2019.
Fabio’s literary background flows and merges into his photographic world, creating a unique universe influenced by the Roman microcosm and the Salento sub-culture. During the pandemic period in Italy, he manages to catalyse his kaleidoscopic world and published his first story: LockDown. In this one, he questions social introspection in a new and unexplored context.
From this moment on, Fabio shifts his attention to the human being and his daily life, which creates a new focus for his photography. In May 2020, he participated in the “Canon Giovani” competition with a short story, Relics, which shows the differences between the world before and after the Italian lockdown.
He then returned to Apulia, where he began his first midterm project, Origins, about his childhood roots in southern Italy.
