Alessandra Rehder is from São Paulo, Brazil, born in 1989. She graduated in photography in 2011 from the SPEOSInstitute in Paris. Always interested in images and the techniques required to create them, she has used them tostructure her work as a professional photographer and contemporary visual artist.For Rehder, the use of an experimental plastic vocabulary distinguishes her compositions from mere documentation.After enlarging the photographs, Alessandra manually intervenes in these landscapes, using a scalpel to subtractsome elements of nature from the images.In 2021, Alessandra launched the EEC (Espaço Ecológico Cultural) social project in Mozambique, in the small coastalvillage of Murrebue. The project aims to create a space with workshops on composting, permaculture, andagroforestry, with the intention of promoting nutritional reeducation in an environment where local families canproduce a variety of foods, boosting the local economy.Visual research in small communities in various countries is part of her extensive work itinerary, where the nomadicnature of her perspective generates records in low-HDI communities. Her camera has also turned to nature, focusingon environmental issues that also affect contemporary man. Alessandra sets a counterpoint to the growing concernsabout environmental devastation.
