About the Artist:
Mila Alexander is a London-based artist whose captivating portraits draw inspiration from female beauty, sensuality, fashion, cinematography, and literature. With a background in the fashion industry, Mila's innate sense of style and keen eye for color and texture infuse every piece she creates. Despite starting her career in couture houses, her true passion has always been within the art world, where she meticulously crafts each artwork to reflect her disciplined self-awareness and celebration of femininity.
Art Style:
Mila's artistic process is both intricate and personal. Like a film director, she meticulously controls every aspect of her creations from conception to completion. She begins by seeking out her muse, personally designing and crafting their outfits, choreographing the shoot, producing life drawings, and finally, painting in her studio. Working primarily with oil paints and varnish, Mila achieves an astonishing level of accuracy and detail, giving her pieces a glossy "Vogue" finish. Her work is described as controversial, sensual, and feminine, often juxtaposing the female figure with elements of masculinity like tattoos and cigarettes, challenging societal expectations of femininity. Mila believes that the partial concealment of her subjects' faces serves to highlight their identity, encouraging viewers to recognize the demeanor, confidence, and strength embodied by each individual.
Achievements:
Mila's thought-provoking portraits have garnered attention from collectors worldwide, including legendary actor Antonio Banderas. Her work has been praised for its ability to reflect the glorious diversity of global culture while exuding female empowerment. Mila's dedication to her craft is evident in every piece, where hidden messages and unsolved mysteries invite viewers to engage with each portrait on a deeper level. Through her art, Mila Alexander invites us to wonder about the woman behind the mask, portraying her subjects not as vulnerable figures but as symbols of strength and resilience.
