Something we don’t know about ourselves 1 painting by Quoï Alexander

About the Item

Something we don’t know about ourselves 2, 2023 by Quoï ALEXANDER, Tokyo and Paris. This painting comes in two pieces H155 x W136 cm each oil and acrylic on silk satin From the series Discarnate Positions, presented in 2024 at 'ROSTOS' in Melides, Portugal. Alexander presents an idea of figurative painting that encompasses both primeval forms and contemporary lore. Through his use of materials and mark-making, both ancient and experimental, he explores internal themes of transcendence and dualism. Instinctive expressions of figures shown in worlds between worlds are build to serve the universes that encompass our individual experiences. Faces and gestures are often seen pushing and pulling each other into discarnate positions allowing him to represent specific archetypal emotions from across humanity. Artists background: Quoï Alexander completed his BA and is currently working on his MA at Central Saint Martins. Alexander's work is known to span painting, clothing design, material innovation and creative direction. After working for several fashion houses in Paris and London he created his eponymous label and showed his work at the Victoria & Albert Museum and Palais de Tokyo supported by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode. His work stretches from large scale figurative painting, garment design and innovative materials research.
