Laura Menassa is a photographer, art director and visual artist based in Beirut, Lebanon. She is also a member of Collective ١٢٠٠. Born into an Italian-Lebanese family, she found herself in a multicultural environment, raising questions about identity, body image, the notion of territory and our place in society. She uses her camera as a tool to dissect the world around her and her personal life, to understand people and explore the different facettes of life.
