Alexandra do Carmo, born in Portugal, now lives and works in New York and has participated in the Whitney Independent Study Program. She wields a 005 Sakura pen to create drawings that are variations of a single image of a Tyrannosaurus rex from a children’s book. Isolated or floating across the paper, faint to ghostly-faint, red-brown, pointillistic renderings of T-Rex’s head, or parts of the head, repeat, creating ethereal landscapes that belie the fierceness of their progenitors.
