de Castro, Alessandra

Graduated from B.A. Hon Sculpture at Camberwell College of Arts June 2003. I make installations and then do performances in them. To document the work I use digital video as a medium. Recent projects have been about my personal experiences from childhood to childbirth. Conflict with religions has been inspiration for a piece called "THE RESURECTION OF CHRIST". A life size wooden crucifix with a woman in a burka praying to Christ. I have also been making furniture and revamping bits that I find in all manner of states. Recently moved into a new studio where I plan to do casting and mould commissions. I have broad technical knowledge of materials including Bronze and Resins.
