PHOTOGRAPHY
Gaia Pierobon – Sara
by Gaia Pierobon
Sara is a photographic project that the artist developed with her cousin. Having grown up together before distance separated them, photography became a way to rebuild their relationship. The work follows a young woman whose world has gradually narrowed to the space of her bedroom, where screens, drawings, songs, and imagined worlds feel safer than the outside world. At its core, the project explores isolation, imagination, disability, and the complexity of navigating adulthood both physically and socially. Approaching photography as a space of care and collaboration, the project became a love letter to Sara, an attempt to show her the beauty, depth, and tenderness the artist sees in her.
