About Alexis Pavlantos

Alexis Pavlantos grew up in the mineral heartlands of Tijeras, NM. As the daughter of a gemologist and goldsmith, she was immersed in jewelry and rock culture. She considers her process to be a transmogrification of her inexplicable depth of feeling into concrete material forms. She carves her pieces in wax to give shape to her feeling-forms and solidifies them by casting them into metal. These forms resemble those found in nature, tying her inner world to the outer efflorescence she feels while immersed outdoors. Interacting as an extension of the body, her work thus proves to us that nature is not something we set out to find, but is something we are a part of.
