Lara Gasparotto presents us with her life as it is: captured spontaneously, yet rough around the edges, at times provocative, at others intimate, black and white images next to bursts of color.
From a young age, Lara Gasparotto photographed her friends in their everyday lives. This book follows this group of young people throughout the years: images that at first glance may seem trivial, but they linger. Moments of stolen happiness and intimacy, photographed without pretense. Her life is offered to the viewer in fragments. She chooses not to create cohesive series, but rather a collection of individual images.
Lara Gasparotto (1989) graduated from Saint-Luc École Supérieure des Arts in her hometown of Liège. At the age of 23, she has already had solo exhibitions at the Biennale de la Photographie de Liège, Photo Breda, Bonnefantenmuseum, Guandong Museum of Arts (Guangzhou), 3 Shadows Arts Center (Beijing), and OCT arts center (Shenzhen).
