“I definitely don’t like working with hegemonic models (I never did) because honestly I dont want to be part of it.
I’m looking forward to working with brands because I like fashion but I guess I’m still waiting for the right call ha!”

About this photo serie:
“I’ve been friends with Milo for two years and every time we can meet (because we live in different cities) I take photographs of him. We have so much fun and a great connection! Last year he started this Instagram called @gordes with a friend of him to give visibility to plus size bodies and talk about self love, gender, mental health and all kind of stuff.
I think it really meant an impact in the internet cause there’s a lot of fatphobia in Argentina but still everything counts. So I’m very proud of Gordes and the visibility it’s making. This summer we talked about doing a naked portrait session and a summer inspired one. Full of colours and SKIN. This photos are the result of all those ideas: show the imperfect perfections of not hegemonic bodies of all genders and give visibility to it because IT MATTERS. I consider myself part of the hegemonic figure so I try with my photography to araise awareness of this issues as respectfully as I can.”

Merra participated in some exhibitions in Buenos Aires and she has been featured in different media platforms: Fashion Grunge, Cherry Mag, Purr Mag, The merienda Zine, Close up Culture and Jawbreaker Mag.
