About

Alexi Marshall (b. 1995, London, UK) is a Hastings-based artist who graduated from the Slade School of Art in 2018. She works in print, mosaic and embroidery investigating themes of womanhood, folklore and regeneration. The hand is always present; handmade, hand sewn, hand carved, hand printed, hand bound. The traces it leaves are often visible and embraced.

Lines, bodies and worlds fold into each other to create theatrical tableaux, driven by storytelling and otherworldly narrative. Marshall has exhibited her work in two solo exhibitions; 'Cursebreakers' at the De La Warr Pavilion in 2021, and ' The Redemption of Delilah' at Public Gallery, 2019. She has shown in selected group shows including Bloomberg New Contemporaries in 2018. More recently, they include : 'Synthesis' Delphian Gallery at the Saatchi Gallery (2022), ‘Outside The Line’, Sara Zanin Gallery, Rome (2022)’, ‘A Star Is Just A Memory Of A Star', Brooke Bennington, Hastings, UK (2022); ‘Body En Thrall’, Rugby Museum and Art Gallery, Rugby (2022); Ode To Orlando, Pi Artworks, (2022). Marshall was the first artist selected for the Demoni Danzanti residency in 2022 and is currently on the Early Careers Artist Programme at Flatland Projects. She founded and facilitates a community based project, ‘Peculiar Arcana’, centering on fostering connection within groups through tarot and printmaking.
