In her creative process, Lais Mazzucco constructs delirious inventions, drawing from psychoanalysis to frame delirium as potential restoration and/or healing—a way to stay vitally creative within a disturbing society.

Studies on Delirium invites a visual journey exploring boundaries between reason and madness. The assembled photographs plunge into human delirium’s nuances, born from experiences and emotions in the artist’s performative process—where chaos and beauty coexist.

Mazzucco reflects on perception’s fragility and how human experience becomes distorted. Her work represents delirium not merely as mental state, but as celebration of creativity emerging from uncertainty.

Through intimate portraits and evocative abstractions, these images interrogate sanity—confronting us about boundaries and prejudices. Let each photograph converse with your own experience, provoking reflection on navigating the murky waters of the human mind and delirium’s manifold facets.
