ABOUT
I’m a multidisciplinary creative from Portugal. My work spans product and still life photography, where I focus on light, color, and composition to craft striking visuals. Alongside photography, I design brand identities for businesses and brands, shaping their visual language and helping them connect meaningfully with their audience. My goal is to create work that is both visually compelling and strategically impactful.
EXHIBITIONS
"Rafaela Alves proposes a reading of the body as a dynamic space of communication, resistance, and reinvention.Through this disruptive gesture, we are invited to reconsider how we perceive the body—not merely as matter, but as an active subject in the construction of meaning. Torsion challenges us to embrace instability, to explore the unknown, and to find balance in adversity, revealing the strength that lies in adaptation and resilience."
The “New Eyes” event by Imagenation in Milan in 2021 was a photographic exhibition showcasing the work of new voices in contemporary photography. Its goal was to highlight emerging talent and present works by artists exploring themes of identity in a globally connected world.
"This series of images seeks to explore the body and the mind through a personal analysis of identity and emotions. It was guided by self-reflection, questioning, and awareness as part of the desire to think oneself through."
