Alexander Edwards - Exhibitions

these are samples from the exhibitions that I have had. having only relatively recently started along the path into gallery installations the current list is small. but more is in the pipeline.

many of the images here can not be found in the photography store as they are limited edition prints. if you're interested in seeing more or making a purchase, then please email me.

touch me

The exhibit features nude models decorated with a written text drawing the viewer’s attention to a part of the body, the way touching this area effected the subject and the emotion of the experience. They are soft, light and warm and have the effect of appearing intimate. Each of the writings is a different experience and the exhibit in its entirety traverses a large expanse of emotion.

The work was inspired by Alexander’s interest in what goes unsaid between two people in a relationship. Much of the contact that happens between a loving couple carries with it an importance and emotion usually never expressed with words. These works attempt to do that and more as presented with the vulnerability that comes with nudity. The result is an engaging insight into the true intimacy of a couple.

The humble fluro tube has a message for you all. Not merely content with hanging from the ceiling, they’ve autonomously organised, freely associated, developed separatist spaces and have taken up a cause of their own. In their own little way their out to make a difference. They’re hell bent on doing what little they can to help the people of the world see things a little differently.

anonymous letters to friends

Ever wish you could say to your friend what you really think about your friendship with them? Often in friendships there are thoughts and feelings you have about the other person that you just can’t say. It could possibly change or destroy the friendship forever. Maybe it could be something you find wonderful about them, but you don’t want them to get the wrong idea. Or maybe its that one thing you hate, but have learnt to accept.

Its nothing new. Its like bitching to your friends about ‘some guy’. Or gossiping about a crush you have when you won’t tell anyone her name. Or writing a diary that nobody will ever read.

But this is no confessional. This is about what you would really say to someone if you were ever able to be completely honest with yourself and them about the way you feel.

That you love them, but...
