Diagonal stripes on white, cyan blue above and navy blue below, under fluted glass. The fluted glass cuts the stripes of the paper into narrow bands.

Born in Strasbourg, Alex Bloc (Alex Bloch) has spent over twenty years exploring geometry as a language of perception. Heir to optical and constructivist art, he creates poetic architectures where line, light, and matter interact.
Rivage explores the perceptual structures of the coastline between Biarritz and San Sebastián, such as horizons, cliffs, waves, mineral strata and shifting light. Alex Bloc translates these elements into vibrating lines, grids and reliefs. The work is on view in Rivage, Alex Bloc’s first solo exhibition at Sakana Gallery, Donostia-San Sebastián, from 2 October to 28 December 2026.
