Alexander Soued, Scotland
About this artwork
Alexander was born in Scotland and lives in Inverness. His mother is from Eastern Europe and his father the Middle East. In Alexander, we witness the travels of a global genetic trait and the difficulty in assuming someone’s background based on appearance alone. In describing his project, Kieran Dodds says ‘It's not about hair, it's about humanity and how we are all made of the same stuff. With the ginger hair you can see that connection’.
