NUE
Des de molt jove, Alzamora va mostrar una fascinació pel cos que no l'ha abandonat. Va començar amb aquesta sèrie: explorant el cos com un territori per descobrir, observant-lo com a objecte i subjecte i, alhora, reflexionant sobre la nostra relació amb ell. Utilitza la càmera per trencar estereotips de bellesa i crear noves maneres de mirar el cos.
Una part important del projecte està formada per autoretrats: "NUE em dona un espai per estar nua i connectar amb mi mateixa, i em permet crear i oferir aquest espai pels altres".
From a very young age Alzamora already showed a fascination in the body that has not left them. It started with this series: exploring the body as a land to discover, observing it as both object and subject, while also reflecting about our relationship with it. They use the camera to break beauty preconceptions and create new ways to look at the body.
An important part of the project it's formed by self-portraits: "NUE gives me a space to be nude and connect with myself and it allows me to create that space for others".

'The body is nature, and sometimes (many times) we forget it. It’s part of us and it’s incredibly beautiful. The shapes of our contour, the shadows that are created by the light and the postures. The consequences of our movement make significant changes on how the body looks and where the light reflects in the skin. It’s full of textures. It’s a geographic land to discover'.
- Maria Alzamora, August 2014.
