Visual artist Alex Dodge lives and works in Brooklyn, New York and Tokyo, Japan. His studio practice has consistently explored the promise of technology as it intersects with and shapes human experience. His work is deftly located between new media and traditional fine art disciplines including painting, printmaking, and sculpture. His work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts Boston. He holds degrees from the Rhode Island School of Design (BFA Painting) and New York University, Interactive Telecommunication Program (MPS).
I spoke to Alex about early days in his noise band, figuring out how to make paintings, working in a gallery, going back to school and much more.
