The wild nature has a vast integrity to it. It means (...) to draw on the innate feminine powers of intuition and sensing to come into one's cycles, to find what one belongs to. Clarissa Pinkola Estés.

 

​

La Loba (2021-2023) is the metaphorical journey of a heroine in search of her own awareness. A wandering through the psyche in search of the primordial and universal female archetype, through the analysis of myths and traditional fairy tales, to free the vision of the feminine from social superstructures and to make its life force manifest again.

My personal history and my body have been the instruments of my artistic research, which, if it started from a personal investigation, then extended to the universal feminine, along a process of reconnection with intuition and nature, from the microcosm to the macrocosm. 

I have adopted a performative method: from the combination of body memories, oneiric material and the content of fairy tales, I use the self-shooting and intimate performances to awaken ancestral images.

The synthesis of this process, combining archetype, body and nature, generates a poietic activity through photographic narrative.

 

La Loba is an image map, which evokes pathways to reunite, through reflections, epiphanies and awareness, with one's instincts and one's own unique essence, stripped of structures, conventions and conditioning.
