About Me

Aubrey Aloi grew up between Italian Catholicism and the Baptist church, and regardless of an aversion to organised religion, she leans on the foundations of history, Greco-Roman mythology, and Abrahamic folklore in her work.

She speaks to the difficulties of the human experience through the power of gods, sheds light on gruesome truths of religious history, and exposes how humanity often hides behind false morals, mistranslated scripture, and our own egos.

She has been published in The Pathfoot Project by The Pathfoot Stirling Art Museum, Strange: An Anthology by the Stirling Creative Writing Society and Sonder by Stryvling Press.

Photography

Photography is a bit of a creative mistress to me.

I picked up street photography as a hobby and found a deep love for seeing stories in candid street scenes. It speaks to my inner filmmaker to capture a moment in time, but then go take photoshop and make art out of that snippet of reality.

I’ve always seen the world as one gigantic story mill. Humanity puts our life’s tales in our photo albums, journals, and social media portfolios. As one does in the 21st century. Social media may sound less romantic than leather-bound journals littered with calligraphy, but tech and aesthetics hold a large place in the world of modern storytelling.
