Alexa Klienbard has focused her work on what human beings must protect in the garden of our Natural Environment.
Individual plant shapes have been cut out of birch wood and feature leaves, blossoms, pods, fruits, and insect pollinators, jaggedly silhouetted and richly painted with traditional oils.
She has been driven to work on paintings that hint at the potential silence that will be left in our remaining habitats if more and more species are lost forever.
“These shaped paintings are each a single character unto themselves, each one reads overall as a single medicinal plant, complete with “dancing leg” roots, standing brave to the onslaught of man’s collective drive to put his species above all others.”
Kleinbard’s paintings, with their close up view of a healing plant and their far away view of a silent world, offers the viewer a chance to ponder the future of our planet.
Her multi-colored creations are beautiful as well as a message to the planet itself.
Alexa Klienbard has no website, but are for sale across the internet.
