Alex Russell is an artist, creating paintings and one-off prints. His practice explores the space between opposites: handmade and digital, methodical and intuitive, science and art, faith and doubt, chaos and order. He devises systems and rules as code or instructions that allow randomness within defined limits, from which to coax something mysterious and mercurial into being.
Fascinated by the creative process, Alex’s artworks are maps of their own making, visual records of routes found by the art itself. They are a joyful celebration of colour, form and composition, rewarding the viewer with ever-changing new interpretations.
A full range of paints and prints are available to browse and buy in the gallery. Find out more about Alex’s practice here. If you are interested in commissioning work or want to get in touch, the contact details are here.
