Milan beyond Expo 2015: portraits of the city.

This is the year of Expo Milano 2015. For six months, all eyes will be on the transitory buildings in the Rho district of Milan, or on the many landmark interventions around the city but let's not forget that there is also another Milan, the city where people live. So Milan is a tangle of streets, canals, dreams and hopes. The stage for all the hundreds of thousands of people who go about their daily lives, day after day. Nick Severino is an urban photographer who lives in Milan, and he delicately and kindly portrays this world to make sure it doesn't get lost, moving far away from the hustle and bustle of routine and from all the controversy that Expo 2015 has brought. Nick Severino takes his camera and his deep love for his city and wanders around, capturing those fleeting moments filled with poetry, the true testimonies of the real Milan, that is a lot different from the sleek, stylish idea of Milan as the design and fashion capital, but full of details that encourage you to stop for a better, closer look. His mission is to delicately make us feel empathy for the everyman's Milan. So, photographer Nick Severino shares his shots of the Milan that he experienced personally, because his photographic eye is spot on when it comes to grasping the beauty of everyday routine and places. His urban photography research gives us - as Paolo Schianchi writes in his essay “L'immagine dell'architettura nel web” - "the image that contains its visual existence (of the architecture), the space that provides its context and the words that can tell its story". Or as Nick Severino writes in his bio on Twitter: “I use my heart when I take pictures”. Christiane Bürklein (@chrisbuerklein) Nick Severino Twitter @bobtailcharlie
