Make Room presents Shape of Life, a solo exhibition by Los Angeles-based artist Alex Anderson, which positions geometry as both visual language and metaphysical structure. Across two distinct ceramic bodies—crystalline porcelain sculptures and richly colored, narrative-driven earthenware—Anderson explores geometry’s presence in botanical, cosmic, and cultural forms. Shapes like spirals and hexagons become vessels for meaning, connecting molecular transformation with spiritual inquiry.
Moving fluidly between elemental and imagistic modes, the exhibition dissolves the boundary between object and image. Referencing sources from mandalas to medieval cosmology, Anderson treats geometry not as decoration, but as a symbolic and generative force. His works form a contemplative topology—where surface and structure, material and metaphysical, converge in a constantly evolving visual language.
