Elisa Cappellari (Brazil, 1993)


Elisa Cappellari is a photographer who works between commissions and personal projects, often focus on the observation of animals and animal-related contexts in the urban environment. In her personal research animals are the primary element through which she explores the tension between wild and domesticated in contemporary society, navigating between the imaginary and the real. Through the observation and the identification with animals, she discovers human aspects such as emotions, living conditions, roles and hierarchies, which allow her to connect with and better understand the territory she is working with.  Born in South America and raised in Northern Italy, Elisa feels the need to talk about her personal idea of nature, an hybrid entity of opposites and her research aspires to extend its range to extra-urban, wild and remote spaces. Coming from a degree in graphic and multimedia communication, she continued with art and photography, graduating from the KABK Royal Academy of Art in The Hague in 2021.
