Alexandra Corcode (b.2000), is a Romanian visual storyteller based between The Netherlands and Romania, with a focus on documentary photography. Corcode’s images aim to offer an emotional and psychological portrait of Romania that is poetic, dramatic, and picturesque. Her practice is characterized by its openness to engage with various individuals, communities, or ideas, fostering a sense of inclusivity and diversity in the creative process, extensive research, and an immersive approach to her subject matter.  Through her photographic practice, she wishes to bring awareness to overlooked complex situations created by inequality, migration, poverty, tradition, loneliness, and traces of human absence. Alexandra embraces the photographic medium as a means to create encounters that establish relationships and question territories through memories, resilience, and generational transmission, with intimacy and dignity. Corcode is a recent graduate from the Royal Academy of Art (KABK), The Hague with a BA in Photography. In 2023 she won the Tom Stoddart Award for Excellence from The Ian Parry Photojournalism Grant and was shortlisted for the Kassel Photobook Dummy Award with her book "Your Death is In My Hands". In 2022, she had been selected as an "Emerging talent in photojournalism" by The Guardian, and won the Canon Student Development Programme. Beyond those, she was selected to participate in the 35th edition of Eddie Adams Workshop in New York, having been published in Reuve 6 Mois - La Revue de Photojournalisme and has been selected for the New York Times Portfolio Review.
