Photography
“My latest work started from my relationship to daydreaming, not in a romantic way, but as something used to accept and to avoid emotions at the same time. I wanted to see what would happen if I didn’t explain a state of mind, but instead tried to give it a physical form. The images aren't about telling my story, I want the viewers to recognise something familiar in them, even if they can’t name it.”
Ilaria Serra is a photographer practicing in Toronto, Canada - Milano, Italy. Born in northern Italy, she moved to Canada to pursue a BFA in Photography at OCAD University. Her work ranges between conceptual and commercial photography, exploring inner landscapes and emotional ambiguity through contemporary, atmospheric imagery. Alongside her photographic practice, Ilaria engages in creative direction, commissioned projects, personal explorations, and collaborative work in curation and ideation.
