Alex Offerdal

Alex Offerdal is painting in symbols. He says he does not care about either religion or politics, but still some of his paintings are clearly inspired from exactly that. He has an explosive and naive way of expression. Even though his motives are often dark, tells us a sad story about life or the world, they are somewhat SpongeBob cartoon like and funny as well. They are painted from within his soul, a pure exposition of what his heart contains that day. Is it an emotion of sadness, or joy, humor, or freight or bewilderment.

Alex is educated as a chef, but works most of the time as an artist in his studio, which is also his home at the outskirts of Oslo. He got the first kit for painting from his aunt. And he immediately adapted to this language of expressing himself. Hence he is self thought. Alex’ work has earlier been exhibited at Munchx and lately at the painting society at Jessheim. However most of his audience is world wide and following his channel on Instagram.
