Alejandra Carles-Tolra was born in Barcelona, Spain, in 1988. She received a BA in Sociology from the University of Barcelona and is about to complete her MFA in Photography at Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

Her work examines the relationship between individual and group identity. She is interested in discovering and raising questions about how an individual's identity is transformed by the group, but also on exploring how the first shapes the latter.

Carles-Tolra’s work has been featured in several international exhibitions, including the Onward Compe Exhibition in Philadelphia, the Photographic Resource Center in Boston, Valid Foto BCN Gallery, and The Camera Club of New York, as well in Descubrimientos PHE 2013 at the upcoming PhotoEspana Festival.
