About
Daniel Sacchero is part of the Latin American community in Melbourne, Victoria. Like many immigrants, he oscillates between one place and the other; one foot in Australia, the other in Argentina, but my soul everywhere. He uses photography and poetry as a way of expressing his experience of the world and connection to the landscape.
What other people say:
In an interview for SBS Español with Esther Lozano, she writes
(translated from Spanish):
With his work, Daniel speaks to the Latin American immigrant in his unresolved duality of coming and going between the place where he was born and this land, like a pendulum that swings between two countries. When asked if nostalgia is a feeling that reflects loss or gain, Sacchero assures that "that fact of wanting the place where we were born or live, is something positive because having these two places that pull our soul makes us grow, learn and experience things that others cannot.
