"Declare peace" comes from a deep need. Lower your weapons and make peace with yourself, learning to be simply and authentically with what you have in that specific moment, whether it’s joy, pain or a total absence of feelings.
A series that wants to be a hymn to reconciliation with your own soul.
These self-portraits, made with the double exposure technique and without the aid of a remote shutter, come to life like magic.
A rendezvous between technique and heart, where the feelings allow the body to find its own space and shape through the portrait.

DESCRIPTION
AUTHOR
Of Italian mother and Corsican father, Laetitia Farellacci grew up in Corsica. At sixteen, she moved to Milan, where she still lives. Corsica, with its history, its strong character, its energy, its contradictions, its intense colors and scents, its lights and shadows, has always shaped her perception of the world.
Growing up in the silence of the darkroom, she explored still life and portraiture before finding in self-portraiture a powerful space for introspection. In 2021, she began a deeply personal project entirely dedicated to self-portraiture, a journey that continues to evolve, intertwining themes of roots, identity, memory, and the complexity of the feminine universe.
Three years of conscious connection with herself, photographic experimentation, and inner growth have led her to extend this vision to others. Today, her artistic practice embraces not only the self but also the experience of accompanying other women in a space of deep connection with themselves, where photography becomes a tool of exploration, transformation, and self-discovery.
