Laura Montanari was born in Rome a long long time ago..... Her photographic training was self-taught, with testing in shooting and in the darkroom.
She is currently based in Rome and she's interested the most in social issues. Or better to say daily life.
Most of her recent work has involved daily life in India, Palestine and Israel (from 2003 to 2008), Iran, Burkina Faso, Togo, Ghana, Benin, Lebanon, Egypt, Angola, Turkey, Peru, Japan, Faroe Islands.
In Europe she is working on projects regarding migrations (and all the aspects of the fear of the unknown). This is part of her long-term project "Restlessness".
