PLAY! – Let the Game Begin

A photographic project

PLAY! - Let the Game Begin is a photographic project that aims to explore the wonderful and unique world of sport. A photographic celebration of a dimension that profoundly influences our lives, understanding the term "sport" in its broadest declination: from a meeting between fans, to a game with friends, a school dance recital up to competitive sporting events and the world of high-level sport. With the special participation of professional sports photographer Adam Pretty, 11-time photographer of the Olympics and many other top-level sporting events.
