Angela Cappetta’s new photo book, Glendalis: The Life and World of a Youngest Daughter, explores the dynamics of family through the life of Glendalis, highlighting generational experiences.
Cappetta emphasizes that while the book represents coming-of-age themes, it is fundamentally a portrayal of unforeseen evolutions in a young person’s life, revealing both visible and invisible transitions.
The narrative interwoven and depicted in photographs reflects broader realities faced by urban families—addressing themes of trauma and resilience amidst challenges such as crime and financial instability.
Cappetta recalls her own experiences as a youngest daughter, likening the role to one that allows freedom while remaining acutely aware of family dynamics, underscoring the unique perspective of this position.
