Amedeo Novelli - RISCATTI

Eating disorders exhibition @PAC_Milano | 2019

Ri-Scatti is a non-profit organization that has been using photography for social impact since 2015. Over the years, our projects have given voice to diverse communities, including homeless individuals, migrants, teenagers battling cancer, earthquake survivors, victims of bullying, sex workers, young people with eating disorders, and incarcerated individuals.

Our flagship initiative is an annual photography exhibition, organized in collaboration with the Milan Contemporary Art Pavilion (PAC).

The process is simple yet powerful: each year, we select a theme and partner with an institution or organization to co-develop the exhibition. Unlike traditional showcases, our photographers are not professionals but individuals who have directly experienced the issues at the heart of each project.

Through a 12- to 16-session workshop, the Ri-Scatti photography team, together with the curator of PAC Milano, guides participants in visually narrating their personal stories. The goal is clear: to offer exhibition visitors a deeper and more empathetic understanding of these lived experiences.

Finally, all proceeds from the sale of exhibited photographs and official catalogs are entirely donated to the participating organization, supporting its ongoing initiatives. Our mission is not only to raise awareness but also to provide tangible support to the essential non-profit organizations that help shape each project.
