About the artist

Alessandra Maria was born in 1989 in Seattle Washington, and resides in the Hudson Valley, New York. She graduated from Pratt Institute in 2012, and is represented by Galerie Fledermaus in Chicago.

Artwork Themes & Subject Matter

Alessandra Maria’s work is marked by its focus on the female form, often rendered with a precision that draws from classical art traditions, intertwined with plant and animal life that suggests a symbolic connection to nature and its cycles. Employing a restrained palette dominated by the contrast of charcoal and gold leaf, her pieces reference  historical iconography while engaging with contemporary themes of identity and transformation.

Press

Alessandra Maria’s paintings have been featured in notable magazine including American Art Collector Magazine, The Artist’s Magazine, and Beautiful Bizarre Magazine.
