Valeria Scrilatti studied
Photography and Visual Arts at Florence Libera Accademia di Belle Arti and
since 2016 she’s been represented by Contrasto agency. Early works have investigated zoological institutions putting animals on
display inside artificial copies of their habitats and the transformation
underway in the former suburbs east of Rome. Afterwards, she realized
reportages in Georgia on the cultural revolution
carried out by the youth of the first post-Soviet generation; in Italy on the reception
of migrants through multidimensional integration processes. Recently, thanks to
the Innovation in Development Reporting Grant Programme, she traveled to report
on maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa.
Since
2020, she has been investigating the biodiversity loss crisis that’s currently
unfolding in Italy.
