“Mixed Media and Digital Prints: Alex Spence based in Easton. Exploring a fascination with birds, landscapes and plants and how they change with the seasons, with the light, with climate change and the prospect of human extinction. Exploring dreams and nightmares in uncharted lands where no humans remain.
The artworks are digital constructions of dead birds, photos taken by the artist of plants living and dying in season, digitised and re-purposed mixed media paintings (oils/household paints/acrylics/woodstains/paint remover/varnishes on paper/canvas/cardboard/bedsheets/sackcloth) from 1985 onwards. Sometimes assembled as digital prints over old paintings and sold as editioned prints on Handmade 100% Cotton-Rag Paper 250 gsm.”
