Interview with Ariadna Lasser
WHO? My name is Adriadna Lasser, I’m 33 years old and I am an Argentinian photographer. I live in Buenos Aires and I have been photographing since I was 7 years old. My first big love was the cinema, but the idea of working with many people gave me some sort of anxiety. After studying Art- the course was quite theoretical- for a while I realized I needed something more hands-on to express myself.

WHO? Born in São Paulo, in 1994, I started photographing when I was 21 years old, when I sold an old video game to buy a camera and photograph parties and earn some money, which ended up not working very well. I decided to continue shooting, I come feeding this with references like the Brazilians Gustavo Minas and Carlos Moreira, and other references like Alex Webb, Trent Parke and his partner Narelle Autio, and Graciela Magnoni.
