Alexander Charriol

Background

Alexandre Charriol was born in Hawaii and studied alternatively at the Parson School of Design, Tufts University, Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and Northeastern University, before setting up his own studio in New York. Since 1999, he has had a number of sold-out national and international exhibitions including at the Yoshii Gallery in Paris, the Ayala Museum in Manila and at the Kee Club and Art Statements Gallery in Hong Kong.

Works

His paintings are narratives and colorful with flattened perspectives, created in pastel and acrylic paint, commingling motifs both familiar and strange. His inspiration comes from everyday events, from his travels and experiences filtered by his own sub-conscious. He is also inspired a lot by movies and storyboards. A constant inspiration is his sexual drive and exploits...but overall positive energy reigns.
