Alex Price’s semi-abstract interpretations of the natural world explore the intersection of representation and materiality to reflect on the dynamics of looking. Foregrounding line, gesture and the physicality of the medium, his works resist fixed classification, shifting between painting and drawing, image and object, mind and matter, while questioning the boundaries that define each. In locating these sites of indeterminacy, Price invites a reconsideration of how meaning is formed, challenging what is seen, what is known, and what is imagined.
