About this artwork
FLIES AND LIZARDS invaded the house one day when the doors were left open to get fresh air after weeks of stay-at-home directive due to COVID-19. The lizard died sandwiched between screen and door and was embalmed in polyurethane. The flies got out but one big one, plastic, remained in kid's toybox. Angels surround the face of the box and hard drive mirrored disk sucks in the reflection of the viewer. The piece incorporates a flashing strip of…
LED lights that pulsate like the beat of the heart. It's a waiting game now.

« To me as an artist, art is an ongoing evolutionary process. The more you do, the more you are prone to make so-called “happy accidents.” The happy accidents are the evolutionary parts of art that tend to have a lasting connection and stand the test of time. »
Aleks Rosenberg is a multi-disciplinary artist and filmmaker who resides in the United States and has exhibited and sold his works internationally. He received his BFA from Pratt Institute and MFA from Yale University School of Art. The central themes found in his works relate to the 'outside looking in' and the 'sun will always come up tomorrow'. For Rosenberg, there has always been tension between darkness and light, and as such, his compositions seek to find a balance between the two extremes. Working through series, he uses contrasting found or repurposed materials to leave clues for stories to be told.
