Alix Philippe (b. 1984) is a Belgian painter who lives and works in London. Philippe questions the notions of identity and uprooting. Her compositions, removed from cultural and historical specificities, are based on observation and memories. Over the years, she has developed her interest in outdoor painting, textures and intuitive work. She makes art of her daily life fluctuant between figurative and abstraction, playing with pigments and mediums, using her sketches and ‘plein-air’ paintings in order to develop an abstract language.
