Her pictorial figures are a successful contamination where modern graphics are the background to atavistic images, which are part of the primordial unconscious and which seem to give new life and light to a neo-medieval Gothic rich in visionary suggestions, but at the same time imbued with a realistic and dark beauty.

I think its would be great covers on par with the most important covers of dark prog rock bands.

Alessandra, in her paintings, gives new life to archaic images, impulses that are part of our most distant civilization. Her Dance Macabre, however, are sometimes also rich in flaming colors where the sensuality of the female body is present, sometimes there is the creation of new figures as inventions for a new mythology, where the often stripped human figure mixes like a totemic drawing with figures that look like pagan divinities linked to the world of nature, faces of insects or fish scales with a female face in a new world linked to nature and mysterious ancient civilizations. Some of Alessandra's works are frescoes that manage to dig deep into the human subsoil, succeeding in stripping things almost to purify them from what may be superfluous to bring them back to life in a new dimension, almost the metamorphosis of the caterpillar that becomes a butterfly hovering above landscapes of disturbing, dark, fascinating beauty.

The photographic shots taken by Alessandra are noteworthy. With her technical mastery, the photos represent a sparse, ghostly nature with masterful use of black and white and where Alessandra's figure in the self-portraits acquires an aura of femininity rich in personality and mystery.

All her work contains a positive form of personal romantic energy and alchemical abilities such as the best art manages to transform humble material into golden beauty.
