Title: The eyes can see what the mouth can not say
Description: BTOMIC was an iconic underground club that opened in 2011 in La Spezia, a small Italian coastal town located midway between Genoa and Pisa, run by a group of friends. It hosted live performances by a range of Italian and international musicians, but was forced to close in 2015 due to lack of money. Jacopo Benassi, one of the club?s organisers, photographed the audiences that appeared there night after night. The people in attendance are diverse ? young and old, women and men, dressed in leather boots or sneakers, shorts or suits, T-shirts or floral dresses ? and the moments he captures in these candid, black-and-white scenes seem to have a timeless, placeless quality.
