Marina Piccolo is 28 years old, first graduated in Disciplines of Music and Performing Arts in 2020 from the Catholic University of Brescia, and then in Cinema and Audiovisual at the LABA Academy of Fine Arts in 2023, she has always loved writing and creating for cinema and contemporary art, and thanks to her studies she can finally devote herself to it professionally.
She would like to work in film and theater, devoting herself to socially and politically engaged projects that aim to encourage the development of critical thinking.
Her dream is to start video and theater projects in collaboration with experts in the fields of social psychology and art, with the aim of exposing situations of social distress experienced by young people and discriminated categories of society, creating a wider awareness of these issues, rediscovering the "therapeutic" value of culture and art.
Always interested in social issues, she is also an activist for feminism, politics, climate change, LGBT community rights and gender equality.
In 2024 she created a movie analysis related Podcast called "Diaframma Podcast" free on Spotify with two collaborators and friends. The podcast's focus is going under the movie surface to find a link with reality and society, because cinema is the art who describes human sight and at the same time is capable of shaping human sight.
In June 2024 she exhibited her second video-installation in collaboration with her friend and video-maker Tommaso Galloni, called "Chronomosaic", at the Chaotica 2024 art exhibition at the Chaos Art Gallery in Parma (Italy) and then, later in the same year, the installation was selected at Prisma Festival in Rome, New York Tri State Festival and Seoul Short Film Festival.
