Beautifully
rendered paintings and mixed media work capturing moments in everyday life are
just the beginning of how we could describe the work of Alexandra Hemrick. She
is currently using lovely color schemes and brushstrokes capture meaning in our
surroundings while examining social systems and relationships.
Alexandra
Hemrick is a visual artist and curator based just outside of Atlanta, GA. Her
work has recently been shown at Future Gallery in Atlanta, GA, and Spruill
Gallery in Dunwoody, GA. 'Salon Suburbia' is a curatorial project she conceived
in which she curates a pop-up gallery of fine art, for one night, to her home
in the suburbs to expose great artists to new networks. She regularly
participates in GIFC Worldwide, including the recent Velvet Ropes at Galleri
Golsa in Oslo, Norway.
With a
distinct interest in the architecture of domestic life, in entrenched societal
systems, and in nature, Alexandra Hemrick takes the mundane and personifies it
to find truth and meaning in what surrounds us. Currently, she focuses on
suburban landscapes, as well as domestic landscapes, both imagined and real,
and their potential to speak on entrenched systems such as the patriarchy,
gatekeeping, and the role/perception of the domestic caregiver.
