Born in Torre del Greco, Italy, in 1984, Battiloro studied philosophy at the Federico II University of Naples before specialising in documentary photography. His projects have taken him to Senegal, Morocco, Iran, Macedonia, Turkey and Romania. In his work, he analyses human beings, and how relationships in contexts of discomfort and social neglect can reveal unexpected beauty.
