Ilaria Ferretti’s artistic vision is multifaceted and conceptual thanks to a photographic time which freezes the incessant time of the natural world, she creates images which hold a continual manifestation of being. Humans are not usually present in her images but there are traces, signs of passage; this presence/absence, in relation to the universal meaning of existence determines the key aim of her work. The animal world is often represented and through it life is revealed.
