“Remember, we are all affecting the world every moment, whether we mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we’re so deeply interconnected with one another. Working on our own consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any moment, and being love is the supreme creative act.”— Ram Dass

Alex Garant, Recent Work from “Carousel.”
Stunning recent paintings by artist Alex Garant for her solo exhibition, “Carousel,” that was on view last month at Arch Enemy Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Several of the paintings are still available for purchasing.
As a pioneer of Contemporary Figurative Op Art, and reining Queen of Double Eyes, her oil paintings offer a graphic quality combined with traditional portrait techniques. Garant establishes herself as one of the leaders of analogue Glitch Art by using patterns, duplication of elements, symmetry and image superposition as key elements of her imagery. Her paintings are a reflection on human duality, the battle for self-definition between one’s inner self and outer persona.
