Alex Kuno, a painter and mixed media illustrator based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, creates a unique blend of surrealism and fantasy in his artwork. His style is reminiscent of medieval fairy tales, with a modern twist that often contemplates contemporary issues. Kuno’s work is characterized by its imaginative nature, drawing inspiration from historical medical and botanical illustrations.
His recent solo exhibition “Yonder” showcased a series of paintings that explore themes of peace and comfort through otherworldly gardenscapes and characters engaged in mysterious rituals. These pieces invite viewers into a sacred dimension, where introspection and emotion are woven into the fabric of each canvas.
