ALEXANDRA
KOSLOSKI
About the Artist
Since completing her BFA in Art & Design at Rutgers University and continuing her graduate studies at New York University’s Integrated Design and Media program, Kosloski has developed an interdisciplinary practice that spans painting, digital media, and experiential design. Her work investigates the thresholds between material and mystic states, often merging analogue gesture with emergent technologies to question how history, aesthetics, and interface shape contemporary perception.
Alexandra Kosloski uses mysticism and divine intervention as allegory to express a moment of revelation in contemporary, secular life. The large scale paintings combine classical motifs from art history with elements of vandalism, moving the figure towards abstraction.
The paintings exist in a mother-of-pearl-meets oil slick palette, consisting of rich ultramarine blue. Historically one of the most desired pigments, blue is referential to celestial paintings, such as the Scrovegni Chapel ceiling, and as Yves Klein put it “blue has no dimensions, it is beyond dimensions”.
