Uniqueness is...you!!!

In these photos, the captivating colours and provocative poses within scenes of daily life create a glossy image that sets a metaphor of women in a modern consumer society. Blonde, young and sensual, we automatically consider them as the perfect doll on display. By using well-known and successful glamour photography colours and composition(a genre that has contributed to the spread of this type of image of women), Ilaria is blatantly rebelling against it. She does not pay extreme attention to the lighting and does not worry about taking the perfect picture: it is her way to distance herself from the genre. But we are driven towards focusing on a woman that offers an alternative to standardisation, symbolically calling out to us, asking us to witness her physical differences as intellectual differences.
