Allegories of life, lessons of nature

"Allegories of life, lessons of nature" is a series of photos with allegorical and metaphorical meanings about life. A fantastic and imaginary world where animals, common objects and nature meet in surreal atmospheres. The images come to life from Alessandra’s everyday life experiences: her life in the countryside, surrounded by 11 dogs, chickens, pigs, horses and all kinds of farm animals, fruit and olive trees and plantations are an inexhaustible source of ideas and inspiration for her work. It’s remarkable how sometimes the most common objects can dress symbolic meanings and almost take life completely integrated in the narrative plot. In many of these surreal pictures you can also see the author's sensitivity to the defense of animals, her love for dogs and her commitment to the preservation of nature.

Alessandra Favetto is a self-taught fine art photographer and visual artist. Born in Italy in 1968, working and living in Spain, Sevilla, since 2005. Artistically she started her journey in fine art photography in 2013 when she discovered her passion for self-portrait, image manipulation and digital art. She is best known for her extensive work in self-portraits and for her surreal photo montages. 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.
