Alex Knapić was born on July 2, 1970 in Pula (Istria, Croatia). Today he lives and works in Poreč.
Alex’s focus in the business world is interior, exterior and landscape design, that he displays using the most advanced 3D technologies. In the artistic part of his work, he starts from mosaics, painting, creating art installations and combining mosaic and painting techniques, both on canvas and through sculptures and compositions.
He is a member of the international organization of contemporary mosaicists (AIMC - Associazione Internazionale Mosaicisti Contemporanei) based in Ravenna.
Although his opus is dominated by the abstract concept of the world’s interpretation, the dominant motive and inspiration are the artist's emotions translated into a visual form that changes over time, following the evolution of the world’s feelings. Dedicated to the presentation of "fluid ideas molded into a solid artistic expression", the artist achieves extremely well executed works from a technical point of view, which is the basis for the freedom to present the idea.
The canvas, a material that now takes on the role of a mosaic backing, allows Alex to capture the emotion instantly. Although the fluidity of ideas allows the viewer to understand abstract motifs in a personal way, solid artistic expression extends to the materials, the performance, and the personal choice of frames that define the canvases.
From perfectly precise technological works in the world of architecture, through the memory of time and space in the world of mosaics, to canvases that allow creation in a moment, the artist continues his evolution through experimental art installations in metal and wood, which are believed to experience a new change in the pursuit of the perfect display of emotion
Alex is the 2021. winner of the “St. Mauro” as the greatest awards in the field of culture and art of the city of Poreč.
