Life on Venus II | The Human, Timed Auction (51/136)

Notes


“My practice is concerned with loss, memory and grief. Speculative questioning about the memorial, memory and commemoration bring together a conjecture of imagery taken from personal and public archival materials. Through painting, collage and assemblage I deface and rearrange found images and objects”. - Alexis Soul Gray, 2020.

More recently Alexis has been drawn in particular to salvaged found paper ephemera such as vintage embroidery transfers, bible pages, knitting patterns and magazines/books that give advice and instruction about domestic success. Often working in layers, deliberately interrupting images through overlapping and obstruction as an attempt to create a visceral representation of the thought process. Abstraction and figuration hold equal significance, images are continuously intersecting, abrasive, harmonious, removed…a tangible manifestation of a multi-layered interior state.
