Rebirthing: Disappearance and female self-rebirth

I assume emotional, I give great significance to oral and visual language. I am interested in the borders between subjectivity, constitutivity and objectivity and I consider my artistic work an emergency of the crossing between reality and fiction.

I am interested in the borders between subjectivity and culture to recognize the other as authentic other. Photographer and ethnographer, my field is photoetnography. I base my work on social research. I reflect on culture, sexual rights, body, and identities, non-identities and post-identities.
