About Kenneth

ARTIST STATEMENT OF KENNETH M ALEXANDER:

I am a South African artist, born on the Cape Flats, with a background in architecture. After my forced retirement at 60, I began translating my experiences and memories - both personal and professional - into artwork. My pieces, often featuring buildings and landscapes affected by apartheid's group areas act, document the forced relocations and resonate with a shared history. As a self-taught artist, my work combines skills from architecture with my unique perspective, forming a visual narrative of South Africa's past and present. My recent book, "C2C - From Cape Town to Cyrene" published in June 2024, presents 50 grayscale sketches that capture untold African stories. Using mediums like pencil, pen, watercolour, acrylic, and oil, I strive for authenticity, questioning societal norms and encouraging viewers to explore ideas within and beyond their current beliefs. My intention is to speak for those without a voice, staying true to my vision and values amidst a world that often seeks only "pretty pictures."
