JULIETA PIERSANTI

I’m Julieta, born in Argentina in 1995, but I love moving from place to place. Discovering new cultures and environments awakens my curiosity, makes me reflect, and inspires me.

I began in the field of Industrial Design, where I became deeply interested in the use of color and in photography applied to objects and products, as well as in Graphic Arts. Later, I earned a degree in Arts and a specialization in Film and Audiovisual Studies at the University of Buenos Aires. That path led me to explore the influence of images and the stereotypes they construct in contemporary society. This journey shaped in me a critical and reflective approach to visual culture in the digital age.

As a child, I used to “steal” my parents’ analog camera and quickly learned that every shot had value: you had to choose the right moment, because film was limited and sometimes the photo could even be overexposed. That sense of chance fascinated me, as did the impossibility of taking a hundred pictures only to keep one.

I work between analog and digital photography, trying to preserve in each image something of that original truth: the honesty of the instant, the beauty that isn’t forced. I’m not interested in carefully staged scenes. I’m drawn to what is spontaneous, imperfect, unplanned, to looking again at what we often overlook and finding silent beauty in the everyday.
