For this edition of All for the Gram, the column on Instagram profiles to follow, we decided to change it up a bit. Today’s is not just a profile, but a photographic project led by Sardinian photographer Tiziano Demuro and Sicilian photographer Sergio Raffaele.
“Under Milano”, this is the name of the project, was born in 2018 from the desire of Tiziano and Sergio to work on a common project, combining the interest of both of them in the metropolitan environment, from the platforms to the escalators to the trains. 

Without a shadow of a doubt, Milan’s underground is a fascinating place where every day the lives of millions of people intertwine for a few minutes, just long enough to get to their destination.

It is a real place of transition that everyone experiences differently: some people take it every day and always know exactly where to go, where to stand on the platform and how long the stops last; others use it for the first time and are hesitant, do not know how to put their ticket in and stand on the left on the escalators; others stay for a short time and others have to make longer journeys, perhaps in the company of a good book. 

In short, there is something poetic and melancholic about it: for a short time it doesn’t matter what you are going to do, you are there, sitting or standing trying not to fall, with everyone else, but each on his own. 

With Under Milano, Tiziano and Sergio strive every day to capture those everyday moments, those little things that characterise the life that flows underground, in photographs that seem to come from another era and that make everything so beautiful. 

We’ve selected a few shots, but follow Under Milano on Instagram to see them all and don’t miss the next ones.
