Taedium is the first book by Italian photographer Attilio Solzi. The volume is the result of a research that the artist started three years ago about places and people who live in the neighbourhoods around his studio that is also his house. Solzi works with set photography and handmade collages in an absolutely unconventional way, his grotesque and vernacular language shows us a dead-end view of the small-town Italian north areas. The volume includes also more then one hundred aphorisms written by the artist.
