“Dancer at the Party”
ALEXANDER PAIGE – 2023 Pencil Drawing “Dancer at the Party”
This image shows a woman at the forefront of a group of men huddled in suits which ties and correlates to the artist’s relationship with a woman named Lisa Danielle who creates artificial demand and presents herself to all men around her in life. This simple image has deeper meaning as the woman is shown running which is a metaphor for lack of consequence or responsibility for the female figure in demand. The ominous men stand in deviant sexualized desire. This particular drawing is rooted in materialism, decadence and excess. The woman features herself and feed her own narcissistic ego tied to the artists former girlfriend Lisa Danielle presenting herself to men devaluing the relationship with the artist shown in chaos & activity around the celebration of female form beauty & life and is shaped from personal life experiences. The distinct pencil line quality in quick carefree drawing style by Alexander Paige produced on while in complete solitude in 2023.
