Statement
From photography to installation, Alvisa’s work reaches universal transcendence in its themes. She questions social positions imposed by the race for life and survival; people who do not want to hear or see, the fight against time, the physical and biological climb of the ladder of life. The human body assumes different symbology in the work that joins the use of pins, clocks and spurs, all metals, to set the stage for the projection of your thoughts.
