Book launch and signing, 'Un Mondo Proprio' by Elena Bianca Zagari

Join us on December 17 for the book launch and signing of ‘Un Mondo Proprio’ by Elena Bianca Zagari, with a text by Alessia Glaviano.

𝘜𝘯 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘰 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘰 (A World of One’s Own) is a tender portrait of how young women in Naples craft their own inner world.

“What began as a series of small, almost ordinary observations—a gesture, the angle of light in a room, the hesitation in someone’s posture—slowly revealed an emotional landscape. These fragments became a way to trace how identity is shaped not only by the places we inhabit but also by the inner spaces we create to feel safe, real, and whole. At the heart of the project is the idea that strength has many forms. It can be soft or unspoken, loud or resistant; often, tenderness becomes the most political gesture. Through portraits, interiors, and subtle self-representations, the work reflects on how caring for oneself and shaping one’s physical identity can become acts of self-possession—small declarations of presence in a world that frequently overlooks or stereotypes women’s experiences.”
