In Her Rooms - Maria Clara Macri - (Second Edition)

In Her Rooms explores the relationship between empathy, intimacy and the contemporary representation of women. In an attempt to give women back their nakedness by untying the body from its sexual objectification, the author has travelled the world immortalizing girls of different origins and social backgrounds, naked in their bedrooms. That intimate, magical, liberating place where self-discovery takes place, as Virginia Woolf recounts in A room of one’s own. The result of this visual research is a series of portraits and diary pages written by the author herself, that shed light on the complexity of a new global female gaze which is challenging gender dichotomies and pre-established categories.
