39 x 51cm, acrylic, water colour, posca, pen, (water proof varnish), 2024

"Animism by Circe's Fire" continues with the questions I have been working on in my painting since 2021 — that is how to externalize, move through and process the visual energies I see through somatic practices. Whether that is through EMDR, Acupuncture, Meditation, or Sounds. Often, it’s a combination of these processes, as is the case in this painting.

Josie Alexandra is an experimental trans-displinary artist and the founder of Aeaea Studios where they work as Artistic Director & Producer. Josie’s work are divergent expressions, for & of, their fascination with relationality and relationships within the world(s); as sites for reclamation and transformation in world-making processes. Josie's artistic projects strive to generate narratives of 'limitless complexity' and 'multidimensionality'.
