Alex Mack
Alexandra Mackenzie was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario until the age of 18 when she made the move to Toronto to attend the University of Toronto. In her youth, she avidly studied classical and operatic voice from the age of seven until her departure where she picked up the drums and other tools for musical experimentation. She has since played in bands, which include Machetes, Romo Roto, Dentata, and Wet Nurse.
Alexandra switched to the Ontario College of Art and Design, after her second year at U of T realising that after several late nights of drawing and painting, and avoiding her innumerable readings, art school seemed like the best course of action for acquiring a degree.
Following her graduation with a degree in printmaking in May 2011, Alexandra continues her life-long growth as an artist, both technically, conceptually, and spiritually. Mystified by the phenomenon that is our planet and the universe which houses it, and the fragile, multidimensional nature of humanity and life on earth, she seeks to position herself in what is an ever-changing and also tumultuously conflicted society. In the future, she wishes to travel and work under varying cultural conditions.
Alex will have her stuff on display and for sale at the fest!
