In the realm of art, where boundaries blur and perspectives merge, my work is a manifestation of a classic journey—a reflection of lived experiences, deeply rooted values, and an unyielding connection to the natural world. As Montana, or Mo, I stand at the intersection of identities, with the fluidity of gender and the rich tapestry of human experience. My art, primarily expressed through the lens of photography, is not just an act of creation but a dialogue—a conversation between myself, the viewer, and the world around us.

Drawing upon my background, my photography is infused with a distinct flare and perspective. It is a vessel through which I navigate the complexities of existence, exploring themes of nature, community, and the transformative power of art. Through my lens, I aim to capture the essence of what it means to be truly connected—to oneself, to others, and to the planet.

The name Aiello, a homage to my bisnonna's madre, Teresa Aiello, represents a journey of reclamation and introspection. It embodies a quest to understand my roots, my place in this world, and how I navigate through the tumultuous landscapes of modern existence. In the face of ongoing genocides, climate change, and the myriad 'isms' that plague our society, my art seeks to question, to challenge, and to inspire.

My intentions are clear: to forge partnerships grounded in reciprocity, where the exchange of ideas and energies fosters growth and transformation. Like the seasons that dictate the ripeness of strawberries, my creative process is cyclical, ever-evolving, and refuses to be constrained by the dictates of capitalism. I am a dandelion seed on the wind, a hyphae threading through the earth, a testament to the impermanence and interconnectedness of all things.
