About the Artist
Hi, I’m Alx, a Colombian American artist, writer, and astrologer making things by hand as a way of staying connected to my culture and my community. Most of my work is influenced by my journey reconnecting with my Indigenous ancestry and by the different landscapes that have shaped me throughout my life.
I’m drawn to the ways adorning our bodies and our personal spaces can help us better understand ourselves, connect us with the land and other people, and become part of our rituals of daily life. Creating is a slow and intentional process for me, and I put a lot of care into everything I make. I want my work to feel deeply meaningful to the people wearing or using it.
Values
Ancestry & Cultural Responsibility
My work is guided by reverence for my ancestors and respect for Indigenous knowledge systems & land stewardship that have endured despite colonization and displacement. I approach cultural symbols and inherited techniques with care, accountability, and ongoing study, understanding this work as both living and relational.
Environmental Impact & Ethical Sourcing
I prioritize low environmental impact in how my work is made and shared. Shipping materials are compostable whenever possible. When sourcing beads and art supplies, I prioritize Native owned businesses. Supporting Indigenous makers and suppliers is part of my commitment to reciprocity and cultural revitalization.
All jewelry, crocheted apparel, and fiber art are made by hand in small batches as a commitment to slow creation. I value process over mass production. All streetwear and houseware offerings are print-on-demand and made to order, allowing items to be produced only as they are needed. This approach reduces excess inventory and material waste while aligning with my commitment to intentional, responsible production.
Indigenous Futurism & Social Justice
My practice is guided by Indigenous futurism, or the belief that more just and expansive futures for Indigenous people are shaped through prioritizing the voices and sovereignty of living Natives through intentional action and imagination. Creativity is at the forefront of this movement. Art, bodily adornment, writing, and spiritual practice are tools for remembering, resisting erasure of our histories and cultural identities, and envisioning what is possible. It is how we keep our communities alive and create more ethical and just futures for us and all who share the land with us.
This work is rooted in a relationship to land. I acknowledge southern Appalachia as the ancestral homeland of the Mvskoke (Mvdkoke) people and honor their enduring presence and stewardship of the land. I carry this awareness with gratitude and respect in how I create and share my work.
