Grazia is one of my neighbours, a really friendly and sweet person. We met for a coffe and photoshooting at my appartment and I suddenly felt her warmth and creative spirit. We were talking about how the world of media (where she was previously working) is still dominated by men, and so there are too many sexist ads where women are treated as object. By more women on top position in bussiness, marketing and other media industry, things are slowly getting better. Sincerely, would you buy a bike just because of the big boobs of the model that rides it? I don't think so. Thank you Grazia!
What makes you feel beautiful?
I feel beautiful when I'm with people I love, when I give and receive love, and when I listen to music I like.
When do you feel complete?
I feel complete when I achieve goals on my own, without hurting anyone. I feel complete when I can lend a hand to others and receive a big smile!
What do you think about the influence of media on self image nowadays?
Internet is a large media, which has democratized the access to information, but it is always a medium like the others, and we choose and weigh the information that we feel are important and make them affect our life. The extensive use of image presenting the aesthetic perfection is typical in our time, I think it depends on us to attribute the right weight on it.
