Alex Rosa

With a queer approach and based on a non-binary gender identity, they explores sculpture, installation and performance. Alex Rosa works with nature so that people can relate to their inner and outer life through it. A root roll in an installation can bring to mind the human root system and vulnerability. There is an interest in how unwritten rules affect us, how the place we live in and what we are surrounded by shapes us. I examine aspects of living in our time and play with identities.
