Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

RESUME
Senan's artistic style can best be described as a fantasy staged narrative. Historically, creating photographic scenes to reveal certain narratives and evoke emotion regarding her own past. However, Her current body of work derives inspiration from not only her childhood but her own familiar history and the history of her homeland as well. Currently, in the stage of experimenting with her main medium of photography, Alexa has transitioned into creating sculptural installation-based work with elements of photography less obviously embedded into them with the use of liquid emulsion, laser engravings and video-based performance. This has translated into a surrealist sculpture work used to process the traumas, forced transformations, and overall, colonization that has happened to the women in her family with the overall theme being the cannibalization of womanhood and culture.
