Alex C. Foley

is an artist, scientist, and gender equality advocate living in Hove, UK. They recently completed a DPhil in Molecular Biology of Health and Disease at the University of Oxford where they then served as VP Women for the Oxford Student Union. They now work in London in the charity sector. Their painting practice evolved out of a need to unwind after leaving the lab for the day. As a relative neophyte, their style is rapidly evolving. Broadly speaking, however, they are interested in disrupted realism, using the traditional medium of oil paints to explore the instability of the image in the digital age.
