Set against the background of Cristina Ferraiuolo’s home town, Naples, and shot over the course of many years, this black and white project presents street photography at its best. STONE BUTTERFLY shows teenage girls – both strong and tender – speeding on their scooters through the streets of the old city of stone with its decadent beauty, almost like daughters of the final scene in Fellini’s Roma.
