Using cut-ups of old work to create some new layouts and projecting them up to human scale!
Laying out; I’m imagining the blocks like those paper dolls where you can change the clothes heads etc.
So all of the components I create will neatly interlock and can be used to connect to lots of other parts…
The first cut is the deepest! Fear chills me as I sharpen my knives and get started.
Alexander Stevenson is a visual artist and project maker based in the UK. Often working with the perception of 'knowledge' (surrounding specific groups of people or institutions) to produce diverse outcomes that are analytical, witty and intriguing. These artworks intend to question the way in which we relate to knowledge and knowledge systems. This includes objects and activities that explore and challenge ways of archiving, our relationship to history, cultural appropriation, shared beliefs, personal myths, and the act of re-presentation.
