My guest today is graphic designer Alex Cherry. Alex began his career as a graphic artist for the television show Star Trek. Raised in Los Angeles, Alex quit high school at the age of 16. Soon he found web design and began posting his work online. This lead to his first artistic jobs.

Alex was always interested in art and the creative lifestyle. His work is heavily influenced by music, specifically the band, Nine Inch Nails. Alex discusses his inspiration and how he is able to keep “the water fresh.”

The topics we cover today are:

Living in a world with labels

Alex’s experience in New York at the School of Visual Arts

How to make your work public

How art is interpretive by the viewer

Why social connection is important

How Alex stays authentic

I really appreciate Alex’s story because it really speaks to the importance of keeping one job while pursuing a goal. Alex can be found on Instagram and his website cherry.ac. To email him you can reach him at [email protected].
