 ABOUT THE PROJECT
Shanghai/ Beijing based Photographer and Graphic Designer Alexandra Diez de Rivera works on creating alternative portraits. She places her subjects in settings that share information about their personality and lifestyle and seeks to reveal a story with each photograph.
Every detail from composition to wardrobe to posture to expression is Art Directed in order to create a "mise en scène" that sets a unique ambiance for each tale.
The line between real and surreal is merged through the use of digital skills and the viewer is left challenged as to where the real world ends and the story begins...
