Artist Statement:


   My name is Alexander Breus, I am a Georgian artist based in Chicago Illinois. I predominantly deal with the theme of documentation. Through my painting, sculpture and graphic work I strive to capture the essence of modern phenomena, starting from insignificant rituals like bathing in the black sea and ending with globally relatable like the current wars. By framing these archetypes with digestible, visually satysfying and laconic images I am able to catalogue my life into a sort of set of Tarot cards, more precisely iconic images that I hope will illustrate many fates.
