Biography

Alexandra Nemaric

‘At the end of the day, you bring your horror in with you’. Through drawing and sculpture, Alexandra Nemaric explores themes of the folk tale, class and ideas of utopianism. The idea of transformation through self-apocalypse is central to Nemaric’s practise, informed by folk horror tales, fantasy and any opportunity for escapism. Nemaric uses symbolism to frame her perspective and individual experience. Nemaric attempts to create fantasy of faith to explore using folklore and fairy-tale as a contemporary means to deal with contemporary problems including grief, capitalism and a longing for a more natural world.
