Alex Dodge
Ozymandias, 2024
“Alex Dodge is an artist who creates paintings with a unique method of using laser cut stencils and pressing paint onto the canvas. Since the production process for Dodge’s work bears some resemblance to that of woodcuts, it was an interesting experiment to create his work in woodcuts. His work is characterized by a unique ambivalent atmosphere created by mixing contrasting characteristics such as cuteness and creepiness.”

Dark Pattern
Alex Dodge’s most recent exhibition at Klaus von Nichtssagend in January 2025 was titled Dark Pattern. The title work in the show features a tower of draped American flags alternating in positive and inverted colors. The well-known optical phenomenon of the afterimage creates an inverse version of the artwork with the same colors—an admission of the deeply polarized political extremes at play in America.
