Micaela Lattanzia is exploring the fragmentation of identity through her newest work, Fragmenta. Both a photographer and an artist, Micaela takes portraits of subjects and then systematically cuts and rips them up into abstract shapes.

She then painstakingly pins the fragments together onto a new canvas, recreating the original piece, but fragmented. Or, the Italian photographer will weave together different photos to create a completely new image.

By both destroying and reconnecting the fragments, Micaela explores the intricate paths of consciousness, where the reality of oneself is actually a tangle of unique perspectives.
