Alicia began studying Translation and Interpretation in Spain before taking a Master’s degree in Hispanic Studies at the Sorbonne in Paris in 2022. She then took part in a photography workshop at the University, which marked the beginning of her practice.

With a plastic dimension mixed with realism, she built up her first series, which she exhibited at the Sorbonne’s Faculty of Medicine. Shortly afterwards, she took part in Campus International as part of the Promenades Photographiques de Blois. She discovered a wide variety of photographic forms of expression, and became particularly interested in documentary photography. 
Initially reluctant to go back to school, she decided to train in photojournalism and documentary photography at the École des Métiers de l’Information. It was here that she began to develop her photographic vision and, above all, to define the subjects that motivated her to document with dedication and enthusiasm.

Her work focuses on the human relationship with the territory and questions the habitability of spaces. 

During MP#05, she will be developing her first long-term series, Quand la pluie tape fort, in which she explores, through the issue of poor housing for the working classes, the daily lives of those who live at the campsite all year round.
