My name is Riccardo Beretta and I am a controversial and constantly questioning person.

My photography has turned towards those places where dialogue no longer seems possible, cemeteries.
Silence reigns and amplifies the feeling of emptiness.
But for me silence is preparatory to dialogue and emptiness to presence.
Among the tombs, monuments, gravestones, crosses... I see the spirits of the past, I hear them populate the paths and benches, I listen to them speak.
I question myself, I interrogate them, they question me. An interweaving of words, thoughts, memories, hopes, projections....
Experienced feelings that still have countless reverberations among the living. Love, surrender, support, nostalgia, consolation, despair, trust, hope...

In the cemetery there is room for everyone. Dead and living.
But my perception of the graveyard is not to be confused with the spirits of the Anglo-Saxon festival of Halloween. Mine is an intimate and spiritual perception.
The cemetery is not the haunt of ghosts, but a place for the living to reflect, to question, to remember. A place not to forget. A place of respect, celebration and memory.

In my works I try to capture those identities that are phisically confined beneath a tombstone but that from the stone of a cross, from the bronze of a statue, from a copper frame, from a yellowed glass whisper in our ear, knock on our heart, hold our spirit and ask to be brought back, even if only at bits, still among the living, to be listen to and remembered.


And I am there, open to receive what they have to tell me. I am there ready to capture their identities and with photographic details bring back to this world of the living a piece of them, of their spirituality, faith, family, culture, religion, values and fears.
The statues, as concrete as they are, let the spirit shine through.

In photography I have found the proper means of expression to bring the spirit outside the graveyards.
In my works I photograph, revive and circulate these vibrant feelings and vital spirits.
