b. UK 1985

Making a work across a variety of media, often blurring the boundaries between each with a playful, innovative and experimental approach to materials, Alex Dordoy aims to expand the traditional flatness of painting and image-making through the creation of works that explore beyond the limits of the canvas or page and move into the three- dimensional physical world.

Editing and manipulating existing objects, photographs and images, Dordoy uses photoshop after which he develops them into paintings or sculptures. The artist is fascinated by the disconnect between real and the what-could-have-been,exploring how objects can invoke associations at different times and indifferent contexts.
