“Four Martinis”
ALEXANDER PAIGE – 2023 Pencil Drawing “Four Martinis”
This highly sexualized and abstract human collage of female form is pure abstract imagination. The composition of women together in a metropolitan collection in an abstract loose free flowing line style symbolizing decadence and excess. The image “Four Martinis’ is referenced in Alexander Paige’s narrative autobiographical memoir “Moments & Experiences” specially in the chapter titled “Las Vegas” where the artist is carried into a table of women drinking in one of the world’s top nightclubs ‘XS” at Encore in Las Vegas. Women holding glassware symbolizing beauty in chaos & activity around the celebration of incantations in a life of excess where excess and abundance collide. The distinct pencil line quality in quick carefree style of production by Alexander Paige on paper while in complete solitude in 2023.
