Red Phantasmagoria of
ALINA MARTINA LEWIS
Bending light with material devotion and optical obsession. Turning alchemy, elements, pigments and oils into luminous glass chambers where my hybrids live.
Once they crystalize in time, they turn into eternal breathing jewels: Red Phantasmagorias.
The hybrids of Red Phantasmagoria belong to an internal folklore. They are primal archetypes that deal with psychological and physical transformation.
By keeping the forms sharp and the brushwork as smooth as a jeweler's finish, I build subjects that feel, just like myself, far backwards or far forward, but never contemporary. Classical, futuristic, symbolic, somewhat naive, and deeply personal. Not a human, not a phantasy.
