Contemporary artist and activist Alexsandro Palombo has re-imaged Disney Princesses as breast cancer survivors, with the hope of raising awareness.

The project entitled 'Survivor' is designed to be a powerful reflection of the disease, mastectomy and it's effects.

The Italian artist also hopes the shocking images will challenge our ideas of beauty, femininity and acceptance.

He has released these images just in time for the end of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

A time which aims to raise awareness and funds for the most common cancer in the UK.

And this isn’t the first time Palombo has used well-known characters to raise important issues.
