About this artwork
Octopuses are one of the most interesting creatures in the world's oceans. Incredibly smart, curious and so different from all other living organisms, as if they were from another planet. It’s very funny that they are interested in us, wanting to touch and interact with us. Оther people's сuriosity can sometimes make us feel entangled, therefore I used this visual metaphor.
Yet there is no particular uneasiness in this image; the red color in this… series of works is used as a symbol of vital energy, active existence in this world. Just the curiosity of a red octopus, which decided to play a little with the feet of a careless swimmer.

Credentials
- Works on commission
Alex Bras, a trained architect turned artist, masterfully employs mediums like used cardboard, acrylic, oil on canvas, and watercolor paper. With surrealistic and figurative techniques in her series, she explores complex human experiences, keying into the subtleties of emotions and mental states. Her emotionally-charged paintings, often featuring sea creatures and human figures, serve as a visual metaphor for the burdensome universality of the human experience, fluctuating between melancholy and hope.
