I am Lorenza Bassino (b.1997, Torino), a documentary photographer.

Photography for me is a tool to engage and connect with people and my surroundings. It gives me the opportunity to understand and get closer to topics such as belonging, identity and vulnerability. The long-term stories that I explore are a response to personal experiences and curiosities on youth, small communities, and interhuman relationships.

Through visual storytelling, combined with audio conversations, I establish a setting of collaboration with shared vulnerability. I build relationships with subjects, and I become part of the community, which allows me to dig deeper and discover complexity within small environments. By documenting and capturing moments that are related to the ordinary, my projects develop with an intimate approach.

While trying to elaborate on personal struggles and existential questions, my work aims to bring relevance of the intimacy of human connection to a more individualistic-oriented society, becoming a gentle whisper in the outside world.
