Read MoreAlina R.J is a London-based multidisciplinary artist with a Central Asian background, who is intertwining discourse around social, cultural, psychological, philosophical and metaphysical concepts to explore contemporary issues through a prism of ancient knowledge, seeking to uncover timeless truths. She works across different mediums, including painting, sculpture, performance, sound and writing, communicating her ideas through symbolism and metaphors, often combined with the artist’s written reflections
Alina’s ultimate goal is to evoke emotional resonance and provide a space for contemplation and introspection. In an era dominated by information overload and external distractions, she believes it is essential to highlight the significance of one's internal world and encourage viewers to turn inward.
‘It is impossible to find oneself externally – all the answers we seek are already within us.’
In essence, Alina's practice is a testament to the interconnectedness of all human experiences and the profound wisdom that resides within.
