Anelia Loubser is a photographer from Cape Town who photographed the faces of her acquaintances upside down. This is how black-and-white photographs with the title "Alienation" were created, in which upside-down faces take on a completely new image: they evoke alien gestures from people.
Probably none of us imagined that humans are so… alien. Young photographer Anelia Loubser, who lives and creates in the future Cape Town, is with a series of photographs Alienation showed that we Earthlings really are alien nation – space nation. She photographed the faces of her subjects turned upside down, and the resulting black and white photographs make us think that sometimes things really are not as they appear at first glance. Wrinkles on foreheads suddenly become restrained smiles and scars between the eyes and noses.

About her series, the photographer says: ''I want the audience to be in touch with their cosmic side, which is in each of us, and which is so excitingly beautiful, through these photos. That's why my job is on the one hand strangely aesthetic and on the other mysteriously eerie.''
