Saved by a Deer

By Chiara Zonca

Saved by a Deer is more than just a collection of photographs and words; it's a heartfelt
expression crafted by Canadian photographer Chiara Zonca, serving as a love letter to the
rural island she fondly calls home.

Through this project, Zonca delves into the ethereal
landscapes of coastal British Columbia, using them as a metaphorical gateway to self-discovery.
Unlike conventional nature photography, Zonca's images transcend mere objectivity; they
serve as vivid reflections of her deep emotional connection to the land, offering a glimpse
into her soul.

Through a captivating blend of self-portraits and meticulously captured
natural elements, Zonca paints a vivid tapestry of sense of place, brought to life through
vibrant colors and rich textures. Saved by a Deer isn't just a photo essay--it's an evocative and enigmatic journey through
Zonca's innermost thoughts and emotions. It immerses viewers in a world where nature and
self intertwine, offering a profound and intimate narrative of living in symbiosis with the
natural world.
