Alex Roberts is an artist who predominately works with paint alongside other tools and methods to arrive at her visual responses. These include drawing, photography and digital media. How or where the works are installed also plays a key role.
Knowledge is already harvested, although we may not be aware of it. Her work evokes the opening of the inward eye, and brings to the surface subliminal images and thoughts.
Alex has given voice to the definable..she iintroduces us to senses we never knew we have..
