‘From Lens to Canvas: The Artistic Journey of Alexander Koning.’

In his studio in Amsterdam, Alexander Koning (France, 1978) has spent over 20 years crafting visual and written stories through multiple media. As a professional videographer for Dutch broadcasters, his camera has captured numerous news events in over 50 countries, creating fertile ground for his artistic work. He witnessed impressions from political events to human-interest documentaries as well as war- and disease-stricken areas. Combined with his poetic and philosophical approach to art, his works are deeply layered and thoroughly informed. His painting and writing have been exposed and published nationally as well as internationally. 

‘Beyond the lens lies a deeper story of artistic transformation.’

Through The Poetic Pirates Society, Alexander’s digital alter ego, he explores the intersection of traditional art, Web3, and artificial intelligence. His AI-generated artwork merges contemporary technology with poetic expression.

Looking forward

As Alexander continues to evolve his practice, he remains committed to creating authentic, transformative work that speaks to both local Dutch audiences and international art collectors. Whether through his painting, documentary filmmaking, AI-generated artwork, or written expressions, his mission remains constant: to transform personal experience into universal art that heals, inspires, and connects.
