About

b. 1990 Malmö

 

Alexandra Lige (b 1990) an artist from Hässleholm and are based in Malmö.

- In my work I try to capture the ambiance of habitations. I look for surreal perspectives that create compositions of lines, forms and materials representing the different layers of belonging in a city. In the absence of people images of architectural elements tell us the essence of diverse ideals of times and can give the observer new knowledge and affect the space.
