Welcome to a new episode of De Donkere Kamer. This time a special episode as our first podcast with audience with photographer Lara Gasparotto at the invitation of our partner Polestar. Lara is known for her intimate and dreamlike photographs full of melancholy and softness. In this episode, we dive into Lara's creative process, her sources of inspiration and personal background. We explore the influence of her Italian roots and the city of Liege on her work, and how nature and her community play a central role in her artistry.

Lara shares insights about her book “Refuge,” created in a time of personal and global challenges, and the meaning of a safe place in the midst of difficulties. We will also discuss her artistic development, the role of her friends and family, and her projects with social impact. Lara's vision of photography as a way to understand and interact with the world offers an inspiring glimpse into the soul of this talented artist.

You can still see some of Lara's works at the Polestar Space in Brussels until the end of December!

Listen in to discover how Lara Gasparotto walks her authentic path and uses art to provide beauty and protection in a challenging world.
