ELEONORA ZUIN

Where are you from? Where do you live?

I was born in Milan, where I live with my soulmate and Echo & Chimera, our two cats

How old are you?

28

How do you pay your bills?Are you working as a professional photographer? 

I work as a translator from English and German into Italian. I’m currently working as linguistic coordinator in the videogame translation field. That’s how pay I bills and buy cameras + all the paraphernalia

What cameras do you use?

Canon EOS 400D and Canon EOS 3000N. Plus I’m constantly trying to use a Holga camera, with uncertain results.

Any photographer or artist inspiring you?

All and none. Aside from photographers who made the history of photography, I find inspiration in following contemporary photographers (or wannabe ones) that I meet on the web.

What/who do you enjoy to shoot the most?

Urban, suburban landscapes are my preferred subjects. I love to bring unanimated things and facilities to life.

Do you believe in god?

I stopped asking myself this question a long time ago. I guess I’m not really interested in knowing the answer.

What do you drink on a night out?

Mainly beer. Or Spritz!

Do you like dancing?

Sort of. I studied classical and modern dance for many years, but at clubs I dance only when I get drunk. And I never go to clubs, so…

What’s your favourite first name?

Mmm… do not have one

Are you a fashion addicted? 

No

What’s your favourite tv series?

I loved Roseanne and Seinfeld. Then Ally McBeal. Lately Prison Break and Life.

Recommend us a book.

Exercices de style, by Raymond Queneau. A book able to open the mind of whoever is fascinated on how to tell stories in various ways. On Photography, by Sysan Sontag. A must-have! And all books by Nick Hornby.

What’s the country of your dreams?

Not a country but a city: Berlin. But I still have a lot of places to see… Let me take off on a trip around the world and I’ll have a clearer idea.
