Best known for his mysterious biomorphic paintings, Alexander Ross’ paintings suggest surreal landscapes, molecular ecosystems, topographical maps, and extraterrestrial lifeforms. His characteristic and masterful handling of paint is nearly photorealistic, with incremental bands of shading that develop into dimensional shapes, blurring the line between sculpture and painting. Ross’ palette largely consists of multiple shades of green with flashes of red, yellow, blue and pink that emerge within the abstract forms.
Philomena Epps writes, “He sportively encourages us to undergo an experience of spectatorial confusion; the closer and longer you might focus on an image, the less you might understand it. Like the rotations of a kaleidoscope, the patterns continually mutate, seducing us with their boundless perplexity.”
Alexander Ross (b. 1960 in Denver, CO) lives and works in Great Barrington, MA.
