These fishing huts (Casoni) are built on stilts in the Venetian lagoon and used by local fisherman to store their equipment. I was transfixed by their colours and shapes, and by the space around them. I loved the ramshackle way nets, tools and equipment were left lying around, giving character and narrative. The local government consider them an eyesore and tried to have them dismantled in 2011. I shot this series in November 2017. There was no wind and the fog was thick enough to render a monochromatic feel, reducing the background to a blank canvas.
