Alexander Randall

Alexander Randall is a British artist who uses concrete in a range of media to explore the boundaries between transience and presence. He works from his studio south of London and his pieces hang in collections in the UK, Europe, the US and Asia.

Alexander's leading interest is in the mark of the human hand, whether in a single brushstroke or the omissive spaces in between. The extraordinary texture and physicality of concrete allows for the distillation of a single movement. Inflexible and steadfast, concrete both preserves the old and constructs the new; this contradiction is precisely what makes it a symbol of modernity. Alexander's work seeks to restore the individualism of mark-making often effaced by concrete and mass production. Each piece is produced through layers of planning that deconstruct complexity, isolating motion without generating stasis. His focus as an artist is to remind us, above all, of what it is to be present in the 21st century.
