Description: 'Tangenziale' is the inner city highway in Milan. Thousands of people travel on this road every day, looking ahead, the end in view. Many times Alex Pardi went to the 'Tangenziale' and photographed it. On the street, under bridges, in the terrain vague around it. A piece of 'Tangenziale' is in every picture. But actually that's not the point here. Alex Pardi was there when no one else was around, in the dim light, the haze and the early morning mist. He has not photographed the street or the construction, but a feeling. Namely the feeling that time stands still, just for you, for a moment, that may expand forever and change your life.
