Citizens of the sea FAO Flag Hall, FAO headquarters
A photographic exhibition portraying the life and work of small-scale fishers (SSF) in the Mediterranean, produced with award winning photographer Carlo Gianferro, will be hosted in the FAO Flag Hall. The exhibition offers portraits of the lifestyles of Mediterranean fishers and their relationship with the sea. The exhibition is presented by WWF and the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) of the FAO.
In the Mediterranean, small-scale fishers account for 80 percent of the fishing workforce. In a context of intensive overfishing, SSF represent the opportunity for change towards a new, more responsible and sustainable fishing model that will contribute to changing the future of fishing, fishers, fish and the sea itself. Most of the SSF in this exhibition operate in marine protected areas (MPAs) where they have often become the guardians of the sea and have taken ownership of solutions that will lead to the recovery of fish stocks and improved local livelihoods. In 2018, the GFCM adopted, with the support of WWF, a Regional Plan of Action for Small-Scale Fisheries, the first of any regional fishing management organization around the world.
These photos are a selection of the photo exhibition "Citizens of the sea", produced in the framework of an EU-funded project (Interreg MED Programme / FishMPABlue2) and shown at the Museo di Roma in Trastevere in Rome. The photographer, Carlo Gianferro, won the World Press photo 1st prize in 2009.
"Citizen of the sea" - Cittadini del mare / exhibition at Museo di Roma in Trastevere from 2nd to 20th October 2019.
Citizens of the sea
These are the artisanal shers of the Mediterranean, strong men and women who work on the waves.This is a sea of fragile treasures.
These pictures tell two sides of their story. First, they’re a window into an ageless way of life – traditional shers doing what their families have always done, embracing a shared heritage across the Mediterranean that still plays an important part in coastal cultures today.
But they also warn of the end of an era: these pictures could be documenting the last generation of small- scale shers we’ll ever know. In an ancient sea pushed to its limits by modern pressures, their future is hanging on a knife-edge.
Over shing, pollution, climate change – these are powerful, growing forces and they threaten the Mediterranean Sea and the shers who depend on it. Soon, unless things change rapidly and radically, there may be no more sh and no more shers.
It doesn’t have to end like this. Across the region, shers and conservationists are ghting to protect the Mediterranean Sea. It’s not an impossible task – it’s an essential one. Coastal sheries really do have the potential to become sustainable.
These photos were taken in and around 11 Marine Protected Areas in six countries, where shing is restricted or banned completely – but instead of reducing catches, these measures increase local stocks of the many different species which sustain artisanal shers. Across the Mediterranean, Marine Protected Areas are a central pillar supporting long-term efforts to maintain the sea’s biodiversity and ecosystems.
Fishers can play a vital role in the management of Marine Protected Areas, working closely with conservationists on many activities, from data collection to surveillance: collaboration gets better results. And the ones with an eye on tomorrow aim for sustainability in everything they do: they don’t catch more than they need, they don’t take out more than the stocks can bear – they know they have to catch sh next year, too.
Put like that it sounds so easy, but life at sea is never easy.There are so many minds still to change, so
much still to do. Nobody doubts that putting the small-scale sheries of the Mediterranean on the road to sustainability will need huge collective commitment from shers, governments, scientists and conservationists – and they’ll need us, the consumers, to support them too, choosing sustainably caught sh and telling our families and friends why it matters.
Spread the word: this is a future worth ghting for.

#HASHTAGROME | Progetto di ROAM
Nell’ambito del Festival FotoLeggendo siamo lieti di presentare il nostro nuovo progetto:
#HASHTAGROME | Progetto di ROAM
Inaugurazione venerdì 15 giugno h18.
#HashtagRome è un progetto che esplora il rapporto tra fotografia e social media.
Partendo dall’osservazione dell’enorme flusso di immagini su Instagram dei luoghi di Roma più noti e fotografati, abbiamo notato che il turista è attratto quasi sempre dallo stesso punto di ripresa, che “arricchisce” con elementi tipici della fotografia da social media: un selfie, un gelato esposto come un trofeo, la posa scherzosa o il gesto di saluto ai potenziali spettatori del suo personale racconto al mondo.
Il risultato è una sorta di usa-e-getta dell’immagine, una fotografia fast-shoot che dopo alcuni secondi si perde nel mare di immagini che popola la rete, con un unico elemento che gli dona un senso di immortalità: l’hashtag.
Ci siamo quindi domandati dove ci avrebbe condotto la sovrapposizione di queste immagini-clone una dell’altra e per scoprirlo abbiamo ricercato e selezionato le fotografie più ricorrenti dei principali monumenti di Roma, identificate dallo stesso hashtag.
Le abbiamo scaricate e meticolosamente sovrapposte e ridimensionate per ricreare una sorta di “fotografia media”.
Livello dopo livello il superfluo gradualmente scompare: il flusso dei turisti scolora in una ombra scura e sfocata mentre la “Grande Bellezza” di Roma si staglia in un’atmosfera senza tempo, come in un guazzo digitale.
Inaugurazione venerdi 15 giugno presso il ROAM.Photography dalle ore 18.

Established Artist grant by The Documentary Project Fund
Grant for the project “Talk to the City” that will tell an immigration story in a way we haven’t seen yet, by looking at how language learning can impact women’s assimilation into the culture. At this time, there are over 200,000 foreigners in Rome from 181 countries; a high percentage of them are women. The project “Talk to the City” aims to tell the story of some of these women, who participate in language classes run by various Roman social communities, and held in places such as parishes, schools or voluntary associations, using Rome’s neighborhoods as a backdrop.
