In Echo Guen Fiore captures bodies of young girls in suspension, torn between two opposing forces: one pushing them toward adulthood, the other pulling them back to childhood. The artist blends innocence, insecurity, defiance, curiosity, provocation and sensuality, achieving a nuanced portrait of appearently contradictory attitudes.“The human figure, especially women, just really inspires me. I’m mostly inspired by what I know and by what represents a certain kind of personal experience for me, so I think that being a woman myself helps me to connect better with some subjects and less with others. When I started to take pictures I did not questionate about what I wanted to convey. I started to photograph what I liked without any specific reason. It is after a while that you keep doing it, that you can actually see the “whole” thing and start to understand a little more about yourself and your personal work. I like to think at my work as something genuine and honest. I always had my idea of beauty, which could be related with the aesthetic of a person or the story that they want to tell. I like to think that I can bring back a hint of honesty in my work; portraying my subjects with simplicity but still trying to tell a story through the lens.
