Emma Innocenti was born in Florence during the
spring of 1975. She has experience as exhibiting and published artist and
works as portraiture and advertising photographer in London and Italy.
Her sharp and simple vision stimulates the viewers, creating participation
and awareness as well as to satisfy their aesthetic taste and curiosity.
In her personal projects, she chooses subject matters of cultural and social interest and photographs
them stretching the limits of documentary photography that she combines
with the her personal vision. The images thus created
suggest the arising of new possible realities that exist independently from
the subjects depicted.
