ABOUT A BOY - GUP Magazine

Italian documentary photographer Claudio Menna (1985, Naples) embeds himself in the extraordinary life of a boy referred to only as ‘G.’ who he encountered at an institute for those with visual and psychophysical pathologies. Menna describes the complexity of G.’s condition, which has him living his life like a colour palette: on one day, he may wake up in blue and yellow, red and green, feeling happy with singing and dancing; on the next day, he may wake up in greys and blacks, feeling sad, aggressive and violent.
