Biography Erminia (Emy) Colucci
Erminia Colucci’s fascination with cultures began during her undergraduate studies in Italy, continuing through her Postgraduate studies and fieldwork in Australia, Italy, U.K., India, Philippines and Japan. She uses photography and film-documentary to visually (re)present and share what she explores in her writing as a scholar in Cultural/Global mental health (The University of Melbourne). Her films and photos have been shown in Italy, Australia, Uruguay, Greece, Canada, U.K. and The Netherlands. Erminia is currently completing an MPhil in Ethnographic Documentary at the Granada Centre of Visual Anthropology (University of Manchester, UK). At the present, she is working on a photo/film-documentary project on human rights violations among the mentally ill. You can read more about this project by clicking the button below.
Lenses, from my video or photo-cameras, are an extension of my eyes, an interpretation of my mind and an extrapolation from my soul. When I press rec or hear a click, my phenomenological experience of the world in front of me start changing, in a delicate dance between the seen and the unseen, the told and the untold, the expressed and the inexpressible.
