By Marco Campelli

0.0 (0 reviews)

Summary

The Way Out is a striking photo album by Marco Campelli that unveils New York City's vibrant life beyond the well-trodden streets of Manhattan. Through evocative photography, it captures the essence of neighbourhoods like Bushwick, Queens, Harlem, Williamsburg, and Dumbo, revealing the human stories and artistic spirit that define these areas.

Central to this journey is the Ducati Diavel motorcycle, symbolising an escape from conventional routines towards both physical and spiritual freedom. Campelli’s lens not only documents places but also the passionate people and their connections with motorbikes, weaving together a compelling metropolitan narrative that feels like an inward exploration as much as a tour of the city.

Description

A photo album exploring the Big Apple outside Manhattan.

New York's soul is told through the faces and stories of people living outside Manhattan. A metropolitan story of powerful impact that becomes the rhetorical figure of an inward journey.

Ducati Diavel is the powerful means by which this escape can indeed happen for anyone wishing to break all the rules and leave behind their conventional lifestyle in search of physical and spiritual freedom.

The artistic hub of Bushwick, life under the bridges in Queens and Harlem, the creative exclusivity of Williamsburg, and the views of Manhattan from Dumbo and Long Island set the stage for a tale told through powerful photos made even more intense by the human aspect of the characters.

Marco Campelli is a photographer with experience in the world of cars and motorcycles and has authored books on photography. He is also a passionate motorcyclist, having spent his youth riding Enduro bikes and his life immortalising the feats of champs.

The images he creates narrate the stories of people and engines. His attentive eye immortalises emotion and passion, places and people; but especially the empathy that forever binds motorcycles and riders.

Luca Viglio, a passionate motorcyclist and car lover, is a member of Half and an enthusiast of the wonders of motorcycles. An expert photographer and traveller, he has visited over 40 states, via land, car or on motorcycle.
