Twilight of the idols
Alexander Rosenberg (b. 1991) lives and works in London. Through a multidisciplinary practice which spans sculpture, installation and performance Rosenberg explores the relationship between authorship and authenticity and the inherent ironies that lie in our conflicted sense of self and its inward and outward manifestations. From children's pop-up books, through to diagrams and MRI technology, he is interested in our understanding of our bodily object-hood that sits somewhere between two and three dimensions. Harnessing a background in sculpture and neuroscience, he actively searches for making processes that allow him to harness a playful discomfort.
