Biography

Benedetta Alfieri works by photography. In her research there is the object for what it is, as a question or exclamation mark, as the affirmation that it represents, with a series of questions that it raises as being an image. Without a function, without a background, the object is concrete and abstract at the same time, hyper real for how it has been photographed. Everything is completely focused in way that the eye is unable to, dazing the viewer as if the image appeared even more real then the real thing, more a substitute than a representation, or to say it in Jean Baudrillard’s words as if the real instead of appearing became the image
