Alexandra Antoine

Alexandra Antoine is an interdisciplinary artist from South Florida who now  resides in Chicago, Illinois. Her work addresses the themes of identity and culture  through the use of typography, line and portraiture. She uses the portrait as a tool  to represent individuals of the African diaspora; while exploring her relationship  to them within the larger narrative of her Haitian identity. She incorporates bold  colors and intuitive line gestures to portray the richness and beauty of her people.  She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts and Art Education from the School of  the Art Institute of Chicago. Her work has been exhibited around Chicago at  institutions such as the Hyde Park Art Center, Roman Susan Gallery, Roots &  Culture Gallery, South Side Community Art Center, ARC Gallery and Griffin Gallery.
