Alex Kuznetsov (b. 1978) is a Lisbon-based artist whose work engages abstraction as a method of resistance — to speed, to spectacle, to surface legibility. His compositions emerge through slow, layered processes where gesture, duration, and structure become inseparable. Rather than images, they are conditions: spaces for perception to stretch and recalibrate.

Grounded in repetition, rhythm, and physical presence, Kuznetsov’s practice is deliberately open in material and form. From painting to object-based works, language to construction, he builds visual fields that refuse immediacy — inviting the viewer not to interpret, but to stay.

In a culture driven by acceleration, his work stands still — not as retreat, but as proposition. A slower tempo. A deeper look.
