As a photographer, Alexander has been working in editorial, portrait, and documentary photography since 2018. His photographic practice explores personal questions of heritage and identity, as well as the perception of space and the ways people inhabit it. Another central aspect of his work is the relationship between humans and their ecological environment — particularly the way nature is situated within global infrastructures and the visible / invisible consequences that emerge within a society driven by constant change.
