Alessandra Favetto

Alessandra Favetto is a self-taught fine art photographer, visual and surreal artist.
Born in Italy, working and living in Spain, since 2005.

Her style is true, passionate and very emotional. In her images there are always concepts and meanings that go far behind what a viewer can see, leaving a door open for a subjective interpretation. Her works and techniques spread in different directions, from color to black and white, from surrealism to digital art, remarking the author’s hunger for knowledge and experimentation although always keeping a unique and identifiable artistic style.

Visual artist and self portraiture photographer with eclectic visions that embrace the realms of nature and the depth of human emotions and feelings.
The camera is my time machine that allows me to draw an imaginary world full of different tones and vibrations: sometimes I jump in a surreal world where animals, plants and objects speak through allegories and metaphors, some other times I dive into the darkness of human soul and translate into concepts its thousands facets.

Every image is a story that leaves the door open to imagination and to each person’s thoughts, perceptions and personal experiences.
I use self portraiture to create characters that are a representation of a surreal, dreamy, ironic and passionate world I would love to live in.
Through my images I transport outside the conflicts of human personality, the ironic ambiguity between the wisdom of adults and the innocence of nature and animals.

My inspiration comes from the observation of life and nature around me, from my inner thoughts and feelings, from looking behind and beyond everyday life as it appears to us, and searching for answers to the usual existential questions. My works are symbolic representations of my views and reflections of what I see and perceive; translations of emotions, dreams, fears and feelings.
