Aurora Pispola
Achene (Series)
DESCRIPTION
Achene: "dry fruit that does not open when ripe, with a single seed, with a coriaceous wall adhering to the seed, but not welded to it like for example the chestnut."
Many can identify themselves with an achene, a fruit that is born and grows but when it reaches maturity it does not open, and remains there closed in its hedgehog, protected. For us human beings, this is easier than going out to discover because exposing yourself requires courage, the courage to take risks. I believe that everyone, in their own time, can find the courage to get out of the hedgehog and be who they really are.
AUTHOR
Aurora Pispola is a self-portrait photographer specializing in photomanipulation born on July 9, 1998 in Perugia, Umbria, central Italy. In 2021 she graduated in Photography, Art Direction and Video at the NID-Nuovo Istituto Design in Perugia and after completing her academic studies, she begins to specialize in Fine Art, Conceptual, Hybrid photography and photographic manipulation.
Aurora uses the self-portrait as a means for the inner analysis of one's being through surreal and post-produced images in an ancient and at times dark key as well as a channel for expressing one's opinion on issues of social importance by becoming the protagonist of her characters.
