The Last Obsession

‘Death does determine life  . . . .  Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalised by reason. For me death is the maximum of epic-ness.’ –Pier Paolo Pasolini

Luca Finotti’s The Last Obsession. Featuring Tom Ford’s Fall/Winter collection.
