Aleksandr is a conceptual artist working with drawing and poetry. His practice is rooted in autobiography, exploring vulnerability, self-perception, communication and the body as a vessel of memory.
With a background in modelling, fashion, and Japanese performance traditions (Butoh), Gordeev uses movement, posture and clothing as tools of expression and communication. His poetry is informed by the legacy of Russian conceptual and experimental traditions, where the text is treated as an object: not only its meaning, but also language itself—its patterns, its conventionality - becomes the subject of poetry.
Since 2022 he has curated international poetry readings in Russia, France, Denmark, and Germany.
