About Martyna Alexander:
Martyna Alexander is an artist based in Detroit. Originally, a designer working in corporate settings for over 10 years, she found her way to art through burn-out and a rejection of the rule-obsessed profession, while inherently using her design tools to create new non-practical works. Often comparing the strange harmony of the strict and systematic to the expressive, organic, and spontaneous – oppositions that mirror the many tensions of her interests and modern life.
