During her upbringing, Graciela Magnoni accompanied her parents as they embraced a nomadic lifestyle, instilling in her a deep connection to photography that seamlessly integrated with her way of life. Now, she reflects on whether her travels are driven by the desire to capture moments through her lens or by an inherent need to explore new landscapes.
Her journey in photography began amidst the tumult of 1980s Brazil, where she found her place in the local press. These turbulent years in Latin America shaped her formative experiences, allowing her to witness the dawn of democracy and the collapse of dictatorial regimes. Today, she wanders the streets of every city she encounters, camera always at the ready. Photography serves as her therapy, vocation, passion, and the very essence of her existence.
