Alexa Kalogeropoulos is a painter whose work centres on still life and mealtime scenes, using colour and pattern to explore the atmosphere and quiet energy of everyday spaces.
Her practice reinterprets the still life tradition through an intuitive, expressive approach. Pattern plays an important role in her work, acting as both structure and rhythm, guiding the eye and connecting objects across the composition. Influenced by artists such as Lucy Culliton, Alexa is interested in how repetition, arrangement and colour can shift the way familiar objects are felt and experienced.
Rather than focusing on precise representation, her paintings are driven by sensation – how tone, balance and contrast can create a particular mood. Through this process, she transforms simple domestic moments into works that feel both harmonious and alive, holding a gentle tension between stillness and movement.
Alexa was a recipient of the 2025 Tyger New Ground Award at the ANU School of Art graduate show. New work from this exciting emerging artist will be presented by Tyger Gallery at Affordable Art Fair Brisbane, with a solo exhibition to follow at the gallery in September.
