Alex Abbott’s artistic endeavors include mural painting, illustration, and jewelry design and fabrication using lost wax casting. In 2021 she embraced painting on canvas full time. Through her body of work, she shares her experience as a Gen X, Texan woman, overcoming crisis and loss through self-expression. Alex's signature style includes hyper focus, bold color, and surrealism. Her paintings are nostalgic storybook illustrations of her own life. She invites the viewer to explore the juxtaposition of present and past, growth and decay, dream and reality through her collage-like compositions.
MORE FROM ALEX
"The rapidly transforming reality we live in often leaves me at a loss for words. When faced with the exaggerated changes in myself, my community, my family, and the world I am left with a deep nostalgia for the simplicity of not noticing. I escape into archetypes, nature, astrology and childhood.
My paintings are ‘memories’ of things that never actually existed, they are the memories of childhood hopes that such things could exist. In painting these dreams, I make them real for my child self and soothe the anxieties of my present life. I invite viewers into these images with the hope that they feel at home there."
