Alexandra JS was born and raised in Helsingborg, Sweden. Today she lives in Stockholm and has been doing so for the past 10 years.

She paints in lyrical abstraction, which is a narrow branch of abstract painting that emerged from French abstract expressionism (around the same time as action painting emerged).
Usually, she says that she paints poetry because all works are created from poetic texts or attributed to them afterwards. That is the reason why she wants to share how she sees the world and want to invite and share those visions with the viewer.

Often times, people tend to think that her paintings depict clouds or sea landscapes, however they do not. Alexandra’s works illustrate what she thinks that emotions would look like if we could see them. That's why she often mixes warm, cold, dark and light colors, because we rarely feel just one feeling at a time.
