Martina Melilli obtained an MA in Visual Arts at IUAV Venice University (IT) and spent a year of study about documentary and experimentalcinema at Luka School of Arts, Brussels (BE). She is interested in the representation of the individual and collective imaginary in connection with memory and reality and in the relation between the individual and the surrounding space: the movement through this space and the sense of belonging (to be rooted, home); the connection and the confrontation between the intimate and the universal. Her research is visual and conceptual and she works with video, film, photography, writing, using the promotion of the creative Documentary genre in all its shades also as tool, by organizing workshops and curating (film) exhibitions.
