My work examines the role of the artist as an interpreter of the world based on organizing principles and a systematic approach to image making. Whereas my earlier work was a way to depict deeply sentimental situations through autobiographical and intimate themes in the form of emotional landscapes and self-portraits that dealt with identity issues, in my most recent photographic series I am focusing on images of the outside world, specifically of Latin American urban and sub-urban situations seen from a distance, at a precise and ambiguous time: at dusk just before nightfall.

Alejandra Tavolini provokes unfamiliar associations by distorting plain, ordinary objects or by creating with them unaccustomed displays.

Also she fuses the plushies’ bodies, altering their features, as trying to exhibit potential outcomes of what seems to be meaningless disasters.

The driving force behind my work is an attempt to illustrate man’s desire for utopian forces to bring order, beauty and strength into our lives. An example of this desire is the early twentieth century international fairs, with Modern architecture. Counterbalancing this desire is the White Elephant* effect that brings reality in the form of unanticipated results to these attempts. This reality is an immutable force shaping our lives.

"I am an artist who focuses in the studies of social-realism and the actual events; wars, consumerism, worldwide politics, and the global environment. I am constantly studying the conditions of social-realism in terms of how it affects us as individuals or as a society and how we react to these issues. My ideas are based on the concepts of re- appropriation, re-interpretation and deconstruction of messages based on Roland Barthes and his analysis of Semiotic.
