Alex Fleming Exhibition
Lisa Cooley Fine Art
This event has ended.
Alex Fleming's work uses a demure, elusive language comprised of reflections, double meanings and associative layering to focus attention on the perceptual and cognitive experience of the viewer. This exhibition of mirrored alphabet stickers on newsprint, layered video projections and sculpture use simple, austere means to conjure maximum meaning with minimal gesture. However, despite their apparent simplicity and ephemerality, these works evoke complex undertones of concealment and secrets.
Several works touch on themes of reflective contemplation, while others play with theatrical, flamboyant affectations. The interplay between private exploration and public exposure articulated throughout the exhibition is akin to Fleming’s process of filtering his analytic inspirations Fluxus approaches to artmaking, structural film and experimental poetry, through a personal exploration of identity, beauty, sexuality and coded communication.
