Alessandra Chiericato (born in 1992 in Milan, IT) is an independent curator and researcher. Her practice focuses around image theory and contemporary photography, with a particular interest in how images transform, nourish, and redefine themselves today. Since 2018, she has been developing a research project titled “The Cannibal Image”, exploring the image as an autonomous and voracious entity in relation to reality.
In 2024, she was awarded the Curatorial Research Fellowship by Les Rencontres de la Photographie in Arles (FR), where she continues to develop a critical reflection on the status of the image and the gaze.
Since 2019, she has been directing “The Room Projects”, a hybrid and nomadic curatorial platform that supports contemporary creation through exhibitions, residencies, editorial projects (print, web, podcasts), and international collaborations. She has worked with institutions such as the Institut Français, the Italian Ministry of Culture, SEPTIEME Gallery, 31 PROJECT, the Corradino d’Ascanio Center, and the Moleskine Foundation.
Between 2021 and 2023, she was the curator of the artist residency “La Maison d’Odile” in the rural village of Bernède (Gers, FR). In line with her ongoing commitment to research and artistic creation, she continues her work alongside the Fondation des Treilles, and collaborates regularly with international artists and thinkers.
