Yvone De Rosa




Found this book entitled 'Crazy God' by Yvonne De Rosa. It's based on a derelict Italian lunatic asylum that she has returned to photograph, many years after her time as a practicing nurse there.

Not only has she photographed the building itself but every little detail, such as the markings of patients, left on walls, exposing their suffering and messages of help, many years after they can be answered.


The photographer has intentionally kept the name of this asylum anonymous.
