Bea De Giacomo
Milan, Italy
After graduating in 2008 from the European Institute of Design in Milan, she began working as freelance photographer, specialising first in still-life photography. Over recent years she has focused more on fashion, portraiture and publishing projects. Her work is known on an international level and her collaborations include prestigious magazines and brands such as the T Magazine of The New York Times, M Le Monde, Wallpaper*, Vogue Italia, Missoni and Gucci. Both her commercial and her personal work are characterised by a clean-cut style, centring around the search for harmony between form and composition, with the aim of conferring naturalness and simplicity even to the most constructed of scenarios, through the calculation and control of imperfection. Simplicity also lies at the heart of her personal work, which has always been of a vernacular grounding and is developed around everyday life and the intimate sphere; she investigates family places, relations and connections, in a domestic and often rural context.
