Julian Adon Alexander is a Brooklyn-based painter and illustrator whose work rewards slowing down. Using dynamic drawings and paintings to force the viewer to give pause and engage with the nuances of everyday life, Alexander’s works are studies in attention. Empathy and consideration of the subject are the central characteristics of his figurative work. Using this quality of raw emotion, Alexander tackles issues relating to personal identity, cultural identity, and race to divert the focus of a viewer from their own preconceived notions into an honest portrayal of life for Black and brown Americans.
