E se smettessimo di indossare le maschere? | Virginia Montemaggi | TEDxLUMSA
Un viaggio autentico tra i volti che scegliamo di mostrare e quelli che nascondiamo, specialmente nell’era dei social. Un racconto personale e generazionale che riflette su come la pressione dell’apparire possa offuscare la verità dell’essere. Tra sorrisi filtrati, immagini alterate e fragilità invisibili, il talk invita a ripensare il significato della trasparenza e dell’identità. Un invito a trasformare i social in spazi di connessione reale, dove essere se stessi non sia più un rischio, ma un valore. Virginia, classe 2001, si definisce “la ragazza della porta accanto” per la sua autenticità e la voglia di portare un po’ di sana realtà sui social. Condivide quotidianamente aspetti della sua vita, dal makeup alla skincare, fino all’università, ma non solo. Affronta tematiche più profonde come i disturbi alimentari e l’amore per il cibo, offrendo uno spazio di riflessione e apertura per chi la segue. Con il suo approccio genuino, riesce a creare una connessione speciale con la sua community, sempre pronta a condividere la sua esperienza e la sua crescita.
