RMFA to present digital exhibit by Alec Dwaileebe

July 30, 2024

The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts is pleased to announce “Collages”, a digital art exhibition featuring works by Alec Dwaileebe in The Pixel Room, at the James W. Foley Memorial Community Center.

Alec Dwaileebe, an artist from Melrose, MA, specializes in photography and analog collaging. He studied at The New England Institute of Art and The New England School of Photography. Guided by intuition, Alec creates vibrant, layered compositions using thoughtfully placed shapes of paper.

“Analog collaging allows me to create and explore new worlds by piecing together various cutouts. It’s almost like a puzzle that comes together through imagination,” Alec explains. “I’ve always appreciated photography and finding new perspectives. Collaging never gets stale because there are always new angles, colors, and themes to play around with.”

Inspired by everything around him, Alec’s work captures the essence of spontaneity and creativity, making each piece a unique testament to his artistic vision.

Collages will be on display from September 9, 2024, until November 1, 2024, with an informal gathering planned for October 5, 2024, from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The public is encouraged to attend. The James W. Foley Memorial Community Center is located at 150 Wakefield Street, Rochester, NH 03867. Visit @alecdwaileebe and www.rochestermfa.org to learn more.

The museum is sponsored by the City of Rochester, Meredith Village Savings Bank, Creative Guts Podcast, and the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce.
