Ilaria is a self-taught photographer, originally from southern Italy, currently based in Venice. After studying linguistics, including sign language, she took a camera and started documenting her world and the people around her. She recently started a project on dysmorphia; a mental health condition where a person has an obsessive preoccupation with perceived flaws in one’s physical appearance.


I love to communicate, to observe the world around me, to imprint the authenticity of things.




I think that photography can represent for many people The chance to look at themselves with new, different, better eyes.
