"Surgeon" Dimensional hand-cut paper collage by Alex Eckman-Lawn

2025

About the Item

"Surgeon" is an original artwork by Alex Eckman-Lawn made of hand-cut paper and layered to create a dimensional illusion. This piece measures 11"h x 9"w x 1.25"d and is shipped in the pictured black frame. In BODY, Eckman-Lawn showcases his illustration and storytelling skills in a cohesive narrative inspired by events from his childhood. Both mentally and physically, the artist faced an apocalypse that has fueled his creative process and inspired the motifs that enkindle his layered collages. Although his penchant for anatomy, architecture, and classical sculpture has always existed in the work, this exhibition will be the first instance that Eckman-Lawn opens up about his images’s emotional weight and the catharsis he has found creating them. Alex Eckman-Lawn is a Philadelphia-born illustrator who creates multi-layered, hand-cut, paper collages using everything from his original digital paintings to imagery from old medical texts. Each layer is spaced, creating a depth that draws you into the works. His work has appeared in comic books, on album covers, book covers, T-shirts, music videos, and posters. His cut paper works have most recently been on display at SCOPE Miami Beach, Art on Paper NY, Paradigm Gallery + Studio, Arch Enemy Arts, Art Dept., Gallery 1988, Crane Arts Ice Box, Bottleneck Gallery, and more. Eckman-Lawn received his BFA in Illustration from the University of the Arts in 2007.
