Lucy Pistilli

I believe that being a native and resident of Philadelphia has contributed to my fascination in the beauty of imperfection, humility, and humanism. I collect discarded family photography and utilize it as a primary subject matter in my work, finding definitive qualities in images people have weeded out and nostalgia in the captured moments of awkwardness of strangers. I have always found that life's greatest beauty is in its simultaneous strangeness and familiarity, in the struggle to comprehend and connect and the unpredictable and ephemeral moments in which this is achieved.
