I am a photojournalist and chronically ill, since 2004.In these years of illness, and especially in this last year, from dialysis to transplant,I realized that, as a photographer I had to tell this story, I told what it means to be connected to life, through a machine. I tell this story through the technique of the selfportrait,as a new way of doing photojournalism, I can reveal all the waiting, fatigue, strengthof all those people who deal with this disease every day.The 'Self-portrait as a way to participate in the story, asa new type of narrative, as a way of self-consciousness.
