Graduated from Glasgow School of Art with a BA (Hons) in Environmental Art, Alex lives and works in Glasgow on different projects with various organisations related to public art. After the success of 'Broth Mix', Alex was invited to do a food project as part of the 'Sh[OUT]' programme with the Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow and the exhibition 'This Land is Your Land' in the Centre for Contemporary Art, Glasgow.

Alex's works cannot be described simply by their media or dimensions. She has been working on different socially engaged art projects and has developed an interest in how food relates to the sharing and exchange of information and views. She co-produced the very popular project 'Broth Mix' with art critic Leigh French in the Centre for Contemporary Art, Glasgow in 2007, where community spaces were turned into a free vegetarian cafe & platform for the sharing of food, ideas, seeds and produce. She continues to bring the concept of 'Broth Mix' to different venues.
