About the Item
Artist Commentary:
I came across these massive tangles of roots, trunks, and branches--between 12-16 feet high and nearly double that in width--lining a beach at fairly regular intervals. Their imposing presence and uncanny placement made them seem like sentinels guarding the beach, or totems for some nature rite. With their bone-like texture and color, the forms bring to mind skeletons of some fantastical creatures. I aim to convey their ominous and mysterious presence in individual portraits.
Keywords: driftwood, beach art, nature, serene
Artist Biography:
Alexa rekindled a childhood passion for painting in her twenties and she now paints in fits and bursts while also working as an intuitive energy healer. Alexa has studied various techniques and theories at Massachusetts College of Art and the School of Visual Art in NY. She alternates between abstract and representational work and finds inspiration in subject matter that contains an inherent visual metaphor; an unexpected connection to other objects and ideas. Alexa has shown her work in NY, PA, MA, DC, and Puerto Rico, and she recently moved to Amherst, MA with her husband and two sons.
