About the Book


What will you find inside Saved by a Deer

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.

Chiara Zonca’s painterly style and overall approach to landscape photography is very unique and has garnered a loyal following throughout the years, her work is especially exquisite in print where her striking use of colour can be appreciated in person and not just through a screen. Chiara Zonca rarely releases art prints for sale so this book will be an opportunity to collect her work in physical form.
