Lexi Bass

Born in 1981, 'Lexi Bass' (qv) experienced a short bout with epilepsy as a child. As a result, her artistic output stems from a fascination with neurology and Jungian psychology, visualizing interior experiences of mind. A quietly contrarian feminist response to societal power structures, her work is sensitive to predator/prey relationships, evolutionary instinct, nightmares and dreams. Since 2004, her career took professional turns through technical theatre, video production, and graphic design. Whether creating imagery with Mordançage-processed silver prints, foam board masks, fallen tree branches, or light, her work is always a deep analysis of the damaged psyche and the transformation of a suffering identity to one that transcends its suffering by naming its own changing shape. Quietly contrarian, her films are a feminist response to an industry born of the male gaze at the tipping point of women's repression and ongoing liberation.::'Lexi Bass' (qv)
