Nadine Alexeev is a contemporary painter and textiles artist based in Toronto.

Her work aims to connect to the physical body as the vessel for embodied identity and lived experience. Her painting practice is informed by the distortion of reality to her own warped perceptions, blending a grotesque surrealist style with vibrant colour palettes, in an attempt to visually convey her feelings of a distorted personal identity.

Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Drawing & Painting) at OCAD University.
