Project Description

Biography

Alexandra Masson was born in Kent, England in 1960 and has been a resident in Venezuela since 1974. She had her first solo show on January 22, 2009 with her “beauty-garbage” series and went on to be one of the 62 artists selected from among 600 artists to participate at the I Biennale of Contemporary Art ULA in Merida, Venezuela, with her ‘Black Orchid”. Since 2009, she has participated in multiple collective photo and painting exhibits in Venezuela, Wales, England, Houston and Florida State in the U.S.

Artist Statement

Through color and texture I investigate aesthetically internal personal emotional processes to sensibly perceive dazzling chromatic recreations or perceptual representations of past confluential figures. My pieces embody a series of thoughts, feelings, psycho-processes and memories of lived moments, establishing intermediate spaces which narrate stories of introspective displacement. Influences on my artwork are personal experiences and memories to express, codify, sublimate and channel my identity and personal story, relationships and mind states. I establish personal cosmovisions of images by means of digitally manipulated photographs which represent a multiplicity of encounters and emotions, suggesting dreams, repetitiveness, uncertainty and existential entelechy.

 Declaracion de Artista

Investigo estéticamente a través del color y la textura los procesos internos de lo emotivo a nivel personal para percibir lo cromático como un encandilamiento sensible, que atiende a un recreación o simulacro perceptual de figuras confluyentes pasadas. Mis piezas dan cuerpo a una serie de pensamientos, sentimientos, psico-procesos y recuerdo de lo vivido; estableciendo espacios intermedios que cuentan historias de un desplazamiento introspectivo. Influyen en mi trabajo las experiencias personales y la memoria para expresar, codificar, sublimar y encauzar mi identidad e historia propia, relaciones y estados mentales. Establezco cosmovisiones personales de imágenes a través de fotos digitalmente manipuladas, las cuales representan una multiplicidad de encuentros y emociones, sugiriendo sueños, repetitividad, incertidumbre y entelequia existencial.
