BIO

Sara Gentilini creates surreal and pastel images that focus on the human figure, especially the female, investigating weaknesses, fears, memories and desires, as well as the connection between it and Nature, another central element in Sara’s photographs. Within this poetic, Objects also acquire a different importance: They, in fact, have a soul and assume anthropomorphic appearance.
Using especially the collage technique, Sara creates connections between elements and realities that otherwise would never meet.
Sara Gentilini loves to approach different media, such as painting and writing, to photography, which give to her work more eclecticism and completeness, presenting itself in a mélange of 2D and 3D.
After years of self-taught preparation, Sara earned a master in Fashion Photography at John Kaverdash Accademia di Fotografia in Milan.

In Italy, her artworks have been exhibited in Turin (in particular, we mention Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria, Museo di Arte Urbana, "Liquida Photo Festival" by Paratissima and "Paratissima"), Milan, Rome and Catania, in Switzerland in Lugano and in France in Paris.

Some of her photographs have been published in the magazine "The World Of Interiors" by Condé Nast Britain (December 2022, January and February 2023 issues).
