What's Faded Landscapes All About?
Imagine cycling 1,200KM from Thailand to Penang and turning that entire journey into art. That's exactly what Alex Face did. But why cycling?
According to the artist, cycling through nature expands his horizons in a way that driving never could. The slow, immersive experience lets him truly take in his surroundings, leading to deeper inspiration. Every 100KM, he made a stop to paint, wherever his bike led him. The result? A stunning collection of art that reflects the evolving landscapes he encountered.
His works dont just capture Thailand's scenery-- his journey also brought him through Alor Setar, Gunung Jerai, and Penang, all of which are featured in his paintings.
