About

Hi, I’m Alexandra.

As a designer & artist,

I’m drawn to strongly conceptual work. I enjoy translating complex messages into accessible imagery.

I respond to the principle that design is for everyone, which has led me to work with diverse clients in government, media, the arts, nonprofits, and small businesses. I have a special interest in advocacies. Beyond social impact, my practice spans corporate materials, teaching, and commissioned art.

I’m interested in the intersections of art and design; the variety of living things on the planet; and making art that imagines our collective futures.

I am a recipient of the Pardicolor Creative Arts Fund for Habitats of the Coast (2023). I’m also the exhibition identity designer for Sa kabila ng tabing lamang sa panahong ito / Waiting just behind the curtain of this age, the official representation of the Philippines at the 60th Venice Art Biennale (2024).

What I’ve been up to so far:

Branding & identity •

print & editorial design •

editorial illustration • children’s books illustration •

Printmaking • rubber ducky stamp co

features writing • cartooning • zines

I’m available for commissions and projects.
