After studying Journalism at La Sapienza University, and photography at the CSF Adams in Rome, in 2014 she attended the International Programme in Photojournalism and Advanced Visual Storytelling at the Danish School of Media and Journalism. In her new series The Beautiful War, a series of self-portraits, she expresses a journey into a hidden part of herself. She speaks here with GUP about expressing wounds through photography, using backgrounds as a metaphor and what it’s like as a photographer to turn the camera on herself.
