--- Romagnano al Monte is more than an abandoned village-it's a living archive of a moment that changed lives forever. Nestled in the mountainous region of lrpinia in Southern Italy, it was evacuated and sealed off in the aftermath of the catastrophic earthquake on November 23, 1980. Decades later, the village remains untouched, a silent reminder of human vulnerability and nature's power. This project seeks to preserve its memory through photography, inviting viewers to reflect on the passage of time, the stories embedded in forgotten places, and the resilience of the human spirit.
