SYLVIE CASTIONIReclaiming the Female Gaze Through Photography
French photographer Sylvie Castioni is redefining how women are seen and how they see themselves. With a powerful body of work centered on female empowerment, sensuality, and self-expression, Castioni has become a singular voice in contemporary photography. Through her feminist lens, she challenges dominant narratives surrounding the female body and invites viewers into a world where strength and vulnerability are not opposites, but inextricably linked.
My photographs celebrate the female body in all its power and freedom. They advocate for self-acceptance and reject all forms of domination.” — Sylvie Castioni
