Al Ouchtomsky


Alexander Ouchtomsky’s work is formed by the collection and recombination of found images and objects. He finds the construction and composition of his work an instinctual process. His work presents ideas of an imagined universe. Where hybrid creatures and imagined primitive beings are conceived from a variety of found materials. Within this imagined environment the work reflects on the evolutionary adaptation of the inhabitants. Questions are raised about these objects previous origins and how they reflect on both the imagined and existing environmental contexts. Alexander Ouchtomsky has recently exhibited in the group show Leper / Messiah at Neon Parc and in the 3rd installment of the Skin and Bones Costume exhibition at Bus.
