Alex Dodge
Alex Dodge is an artist who creates paintings with a unique method of using laser cut stencils and pressing paint onto the canvas. Since the production process for Dodge's work bears some resemblance to that of woodcuts, it was an interesting experiment to create his work in woodcuts. His work is characterized by a unique ambivalent atmosphere created by mixing contrasting characteristics such as cuteness and creepiness.

List of Work
彫ーCarving
Focusing all of his attention on the point of his knife, the carver creates smooth, elegant lines.
Alex Dodge works by combining advanced digital tools with traditional techniques and materials. Fine, uniform outlines generated by computer are meticulously carved by the woodblock carver using the tip of a small, finely honed blade.
摺ーPrinting
Light and brilliant colors are born from materials and techniques that are unique to Japan.
Previously inspired by techniques such as stencil dyeing, Dodge has focused this time on the bokashi gradation of traditional woodcut prints. The deeply colored gradations produced by the printer’s baren create a mesmerizing sense of space within the compositions.
