Lilly Alexandra
Lilly Alexandra is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores memory, cultural identity, and the layered spaces of belonging. Shaped by life between cultures, her practice transforms objects, images, and sound into works that reflect on collective memory, identity, and oral storytelling. Drawing from a personal archive of photographs, sounds, and memories, she developed a collage technique to reimagine and recreate the atmosphere of home, inspired by the landscapes, traditions, and customs of Bonaire and Curaçao. Through careful material choices closely linked to these stories. Lilly makes intangible memories and oral histories tangible, allowing viewers to step into spaces of remembrance and reflection, where adaptation, preservation, and longing quietly intertwine.
