"Salviamo la luna"is a public art and civic participation project. It uses photography as the initial vehicle to engage the neighbors of Cinisello Balsamo, in the Italian province of Milan, through the display of their portraits, as proposed in an open process by the artist Jochen Gerz. After overcoming several challenges Fran Reyes and Davide Ferrario have almost ready a documentary that picks up the proposal, and taking it beyond the initial scope, becomes an exploration of civic society and public art.

I work for an organization in a department where we have been assigned to organize a picnic at Mount Vernon. It should be quite the nice and memorable day, chilling out by the Potomac River, a few sandwiches, good company, nice conversations...

OK, Mount Vernon is a good 16 miles away from here, but there is a pretty nice trail that we can use. I would typically get the bikes, pack some good sandwiches, and cycle over there. I am told that it is a nice idea but apparently we do not use bikes. OK, so maybe we need to use the old car we have or if that is not enough rent a minivan, or better yet: use public transportation.

Back to Work is an urban portrait taken in the space of a year. A portrait made of people walking on a commute to and from work.
