Alex is an artist and art educator living and working in Astoria, Queens. As a maker, she is interested in human relationships with time and positioning the studio practice as a type of labor, a way of working with ones hands.

Her paintings and drawings aim to document and describe perceptions of time as lived experience, through color, shape, line, form, rhythm, and movement. In this way, her works can speak to a particular and personal moment in time, ground one in the present, or evoke a sense of nostalgia. Using collage and sketching practices to inform larger works, she maps out her own visual language, one that considers how we relate to time as both linear and measurable and time as shapeshifting and transcendental.

This artistic practice helps to inform and is happily reimagined on a regular basis by her work as a teaching artist in New York City.
