About
Alekz is a genderfluid grief worker & multimedia artist working with found, lost, & discarded objects with reverence, intuition, & curiosity, as means to instigate conversations about the poetics of the mundane, the unremarkable, the overlooked–in short, the poetics of nothing–as sites of thrumming life.
They snip, stick, solder, paint, try, fold, sew, snap, find, & place with curiosity, glass, pigment, paper, chance, fiber, knife, glue, & poetry. Through their expansive collage practice they compress time, archive memory, grieve, and reconceptualize what is remarkable.
