Alex Merrell is a Canadian multi-disciplinary artist based in Los Angeles. Her sculpture practice reveals curiosity toward the intersection where classical and contemporary wisdom and aesthetics meet to demonstrate timeless truths.

Her new body of work, nova fabula, explores a unique dialect of form, in which elements of the anatomical are reduced into geometric abstraction and universal symbolism. This development of visual language explores what can be best conveyed and understood not through sight, but feeling.

Each work rests at a connection point between the physical world and the divine realm, a portal between the seen and unseen. Figures appear suspended in time, monumental in their presence yet vulnerable in their humanity, a representation of the simultaneous power of the soul's journey and the poignant fragility of the body's experience.
