Alexa Huang
Alexa Huang is a Chinese visual artist currently based in New York City, where she is pursuing her MFA in painting at the New York Academy of Art.
Huang's work explores both Eastern and Western aesthetics, incorporating mixed-media techniques inspired by traditional Chinese ink paintings. Rather than representing life through a realistic lens, Huang seeks to evoke some sentimental acquiescence.
Drawing on her musical instincts in visual art, Huang fuses abstract geometric patterns with gestural painterly marks. By controlling the range of values and saturation in the layers, she challenges the sequential expression of the image as a whole, creating a unique rhythm and layered connotations in her work.
