Alexis Neal

Since completing a Masters degree in Fine Art Media at the Slade School of Fine Arts in London, Alexis has continued to develop her professional practice as a contemporary New Zealand artist. Alongside her professional career Alexis has also fulfilled tutoring positions in both academic and community institutions.

As a practising artist her work involves defining a place for women’s cultural identity and predominately has looked at the duality of artefacts in terms of personal adornment and material culture. Her studio practice is interdisciplinary, combining components of print, sewn feather canvases, weaving and installation works together to address Maori traditional whakapapa in a contemporary context.

Solander talks with Alexis Neal leading up to her July exhibition. Alexis discusses with Solander Co-Director, Vincent Drane her arts practice, her upcoming exhibition and her selection for the Tylee Cottage residency in Whanganui.
