    It could be considered as an illustrated diary focused on the return to “normal life” for 14 breast cancer survivors who began smiling again. The Italian book “A seno nudo” (ed.

    Some stories need to be told. That’s how art traces paths and stimulates thoughts, changing perspectives and reminding ourselves that creativity generates emotions. And emotions could end up being the greatest treatment. Angelo Merendino is an American photographer. “The Battle We Didn’t Choose” is the project he’s been deeply dedicating himself to for about five years.

    Somebody might think that this is a cunning way to overcome current periods of crisis.
