Part of a series of new paintings called Leisure, this piece draws on the colorful, mental sugar rush of nostalgia that quickly fades into an unguided longing. This piece is a pairing of a donut and a game screen of Street Fighter II. This juxtaposition of two unrelated totems of childhood challenge the feeling our useless longing for the past while still having a warm undeniable draw. I used images with vivid colors reproduced via 4 color process screenprinting to represent this same grasp and allow the viewer to unsuccessfully try to connect each image's meaning in a way that parallels a person looking to their past desires to make some sort of informed choice about their future. This piece is ink on artists board.

Alexander Key is an emerging contemporary artist from Charlotte, North Carolina. His work appropriates a wide variety of cultural ephemera, extracting familiar aesthetics and re-contextualizing them into new compositions that act as bittersweet commentaries. Mining from the resonance of childhood images and personal nostalgia, he explores the impact of these mental keepsakes on a broader collective memory. Working primarily in the medium of silkscreen printing, his work ranges from monotone prints to densely layered paintings. Please reach out if you are interested in showing his work or want to know more about his artistic practice.
