The work of young photographer Alexandra Hunts is currently on exhibition at SPACES Amsterdam. Her focus is on the tension between man and nature, reality and fiction. She sees herself more as a sculptor or installation artist who uses photography as a tool. She explores philosophical aspects of nature and investigates how images of nature, landscape and objects shape memory and vision.

Alexandra is the first in a new series in which we ask creative people about their favourites.
