giada believes in storytelling’s magical power: her projects always try to deal subtly with the spell of narration and images, looking back to their original forms. she’s fascinated by how our reality is intertwined with the story we make of it. she works mainly with photography but her work often involves different mediums (film, text, installation)
Her practice involves a strong interest in curating photography and bookmaking, she curated three exhibitions for RUFA Open Days and the collective exhibition "And All is Always Now" from the students of the 3rd BA from KASK.
