Originally from the Sicilian east coast, Elisa Mazzuca formed her own critical and artistic awareness by merging love for the visual arts with her strong Sicilian identity. Interested and dedicated to art from a very young age, Elisa has never stopped exploring new possibilities between different disciplines. In fact, she integrates her documentary approach to photography with design, illustration and digital art studies. Her main areas of interest and exploration are kaleidoscopic Mediterranean culture, photography that celebrates the beauty of everyday life, human-centered design and our relationship with technology. She doesn't like to give herself a specific term to describe her own artistic practice, as being creative means being free and transcending all categories and labels.

From my documentray project Story of A Ghost Island. This body of work is a visual commentary on a sense of pacific abandon and mystery that characterizes Sicily. It is a project exploring deeply personal themes such as age, desolation, innocence and relationship with nature. It is the celebration of the untold and underrated uniqueness of being Sicilian.
