I want my photos to bring Monia (to) all the places where she cannot go, and I also would like my photography to (place) viewers in Monia's life for a moment.

I try to understand what her way of looking at reality is. I try to capture what she captures, the worlds I see around Monia would not exist without her. They recount her personality. That is why I try to depict the visual space that surrounds her, even through an obscured, unclear view.

I enjoyed the whole process, it turned out like a game -- taking us back to our childhood together, when age and innocence cut off all the distances making the two of us connected in one thing. This work is about telling a love story.

I used to share my bedroom with Monia for many years. She often woke up in the middle of the night, gesticulating, pointing up with her fingers, as she meant to say something.

One day, I will take care of her. by Giovanni Cocco
