Fabian Albertini  

Fabian Albertini is a Reggio Emilia and Rio de Janeiro-based Italian artist. In her research Fabian Albertini uses installations and photography to explore the realms of existence and perceptions.

Fabian focuses on reflection, moving beyond the simple observation of works, creating issues in our way of thinking, changing the way something is regarded, understood, or interpreted. 

To date, her works have explored the complex of consciousness creating performances interpreted by contemporary dancers inside the environment; the relationship between the human being and the environment through dialogues between art and spirituality, focused on daily transformations, using digital interventions and exploring different materials to give photography new possibilities.
