Alessio Keilty was born and raised in Bussero, a the countryside nearby Milan where he is now based. He has a degree in Design and today he works mainly as a freelance light assistant and photographer within commercial and fashion industry.
During his childhood was fascinated by documentaries, sci fi movies and animated cartoons which nourished his imagination. This personal process of visual exploration still influences his way to see the world, working with naive and spontaneous visual associations, in constant search of bizarre and diversified subjects to work with.
About The beekeeper – words by Alessio Keilty:
After few months locked down in the grey blocks of Milan, I decided to spend two days with Riccardo Grammatica, a beekeeper and the third generation of his family who worked for more than a century with the rational-beekeeping method in Gravedona.
I followed him during the process of collection and extraction of the honey, from his beehives hidden in a deep forest on the north side of Lake Como to the laboratory where he transforms the golden raw liquid into one of the sweetest thing I’ve ever tried.
