Francesca Genovese was born in Matera, Italy. Currently, she lives and works in Berlin, Germany.
Her work looks at the intimate space where one questions themselves. The imagery is a direct consequence of the urge to uncover the deeper fragility of the individual, who struggles to reveal herself and identify in a society where there is not much place for anything other than appearances. Intimacy is indeed an urge, a call to embrace the untainted part of being.
The subject, therefore, is caught in a meditative moment, almost disturbed, but also welcoming the viewer into a foreign space. Without a context and in a timeless dimension, the subject lies fixed in an action that does not happen, but dilates.
