One of the women pictured is Emily, a painter based in New York City. “When I met Emily in her creative studio, I was overwhelmed by emotions,” Mery remembers. “I could feel all the suffering and the joy within her paintings.” For the Italian, it’s important to face everyone without judgement but with empathy, as you never know who’s fighting what battle.
In an age of heightened social anxiety, meeting strangers doesn’t always come easily, but Mery has a gift of turning random chit-chat into a deep conversation about womanhood, life and all of its bizarre coincidences. “One night, I was walking alone in LA and couldn’t find a, so I asked this boy with a guitar where to go,” she tells us. “He invited me to his home, where I actually found one of my subjects.
For Mery, womanhood is a long journey towards understanding the truths about ourselves. It’s about supporting one another. “The envy and the constant comparison between women is a mental process that comes fromand from capitalism,” she emphasises. With her project, she hoped to make room for women to discover themselves in new ways, and ultimately to give the reader inspiration to do the same.
“All the women around me, all the ones I’ve met, they helped me, they opened my mind,” Mery recognises, having spending years working on the book. After all, as she muses across one of the pages: “I don’t have a sister, maybe that’s why I’m looking for her in every woman.”
