Josie Alexandra is an experimental trans-disciplinary artist intrigued by intra-personal relationality as sites for reclamation and transformation in world-making processes to create plausible futurisms for trans & neurodiverse folk & beyond.
Since 2020 they have been working on {P01~L94CG} — a longform research project which emerged from an ambition to re-contextualise their late grandma’s politic – “the importance of knowing one’s mind”. Striving to honour this worldview whilst breaking intergenerational patterns informed key concepts in their research; politic of interiority and life, you are a computer game, an artistic experiment.
Artistic monikers X4NDR4 & Carto, re-narrativises understandings of Josie’s personhood to celebrate non-binary & neurodiverse ways of being, reclaiming a sense of interiority, via relationships to the Virtual, Physical and Digital.
Research from {P01~L94CG} has informed multiple projects and includes forthcoming experimental films, spoken-word electro-acoustic soundscapes, poetry and paintings.
Josie’s residency at Hangar is supported by the Ian Potter Cultural Trust, Australia Council for the Arts – Arts Projects For Individuals and Groups.
