About
Alex:
Alex Platt was born and raised in rural New South Wales. Being the daughter of
gold prospecting parents, lengthy family trips were spent camping in the
isolated desert regions of Western Australia. Her time there was often
occupied by drawing and painting, and exploring her surrounds. A desire to
express herself and communicate visually was something ingrained in her
character from these very early days. This connection with the outdoors, and
elements of the natural world are still very present in her work today.
As an adult Alex pursued a career as an artist, choosing to remain self-taught.
For the past 15 years, she has been exhibiting her work throughout Australia in
both commercial and government funded galleries. Her work has made it’s way
into numerous private collections in Australia and internationally. After
living in France, her work evolved, balancing the two very different worlds of
her past and present; That of her raw and familiar homeland, and that of the
historically and culturally rich nation of France.
Alex’s work is often autobiographical, sometimes whimsical and always thought
provoking.
Proudly supported by City
of Joondalup and Creative Edge Art Collective
