Alexandria Couch is a visual artist whose work explores the intersection between dissociative dreamscapes and an expansive personal archive both historic and mythical. Textiles, recycled materials, text, paint and furniture are used to hold, mend, disrupt and document a vast interior world in which contradictions are inevitable. Using shapeshifting as a mode of operation, Couch interrogates the space between the dimensions of reality and universes spurred forward by past and present experiences.
Couch is a native of Akron, Ohio where she received her BFAs in Printmaking and Painting at the University of Akron’s Myers School of Art (2020). She completed her Printmaking and Painting MFA at Yale University (2023) and a Fellowship at the NXTHVN residency in New Haven, CT (2024) where she now lives and works.
Couch has shown in multiple exhibitions including the 2022 Front Triennial, A Signal Not Urgent but Breaking at the Perrotin gallery in NY, The Campus Inaugural Exhibition in NY, Behind the Bedroom Door at the James Cohan Gallery in NY, and the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in London.
