title
Folden Woman
She was born and grew up in Rome from a Sicilian family. The connection to Sicily has always been quite strong, so her origins played an importan role in her formation. This influence is reflected also in her works, especially in the lights and Baroque poses. She graduated in Political Sciences with the highest score at Rome university, but she soon understood that it was not her path, so she enrolled the Photography Academy. It is in fact in this field that she can totally express herself and her artistic soul.
She published her works on several websites and both on Italian and international photography and art magazines: Fotografia Moderna, Artonweb, Artisti del Mare, Bagzine, Shots Magazine.
She was added to the historical archive of the Folk Art and traditions museum of Rome. She is author of the blogs: animadeiluoghi.blogspot.com and scorreiltempo.blogspot.com.

entry description
My photography is artistic – avant-garde, close to painting, obsessed by time and long exposure time through which I realize my images, that are intentionally faded, foggy, “in progress”. I photograph for the opposite reason that is normally expected: not to stop the time, but to show its flow. Introspective, dreamlike and surreal, my pictures are located at the edge between “visible and invisible” and can directly represent the deepest emotions, dreams, feelings and the agony of being. The project "Folden Woman"shows all female fragility through folds in the body, that are folds in the soul. A woman that looks like a paper.about the photographer
