Details of ‘The Matchbook’ by Alexandra Jean Auger
Crease in the cover, blue blotch where the ink got wet, handwriting get squished and smaller where the writer misjudged their space, smiley, embroidered flecks on the match tips - I like the grubby little signs of life in a piece

alternate looks / the days are just packed, handwoven by alexandra jean auger
thank you so much for the enthusiasm on this one, for sharing my work. it means the world and helps me more than you know.
i’ve seen a couple reblogs of my weavings recently that say “i want this” or similar so just a shameless reminder — i *do* sell my work. if you don’t see someone on my online shop, don’t hesitate to email about it.

Desperately need to make space so first up: selling this ‘rare’ smaller study from late last year. A braid neatly tied then chopped into the sink, maybe for your own bathroom?
My website/store is here and if you’re reading this, ily, use code BRAIDTUMBLR for a petite discount.
Crushing, 2022, 15” x 18”
handwoven by Alexandra Jean Auger
crushing - finally, you are hanging out with that person (is this a date?) and they are notoriously against having their photo taken but relent so long as they don’t have to look at it, so you snap and scrawl and slip the polaroid directly into your pocket, beaming. on the bus home later half dizzy you pull it out and it’s all fucked up, light leaks and a big damaged blotch and this isn’t what you planned to remember. crushing.
It is my true pure joy to announce I will be showing weavings for the first time (finally!) in Los Angeles in this beautiful group show at a space I am so, so excited about. The first time I visited Heavy Manners Library felt like a return to excitement and endless possibilities of teenhood. I can’t wait to see all they do here, or to see the other works in this show.
Becoming opens Thursday February 24th at 7pm!
Win this weaving!
To offset green card renewal costs ans make space in my tiny studio, I am raffling off Dream Journal I. I’m also curious to test this as a way of offering expensive pieces more accessibly. Entries are $5 apiece and unlimited. Winner will be drawn February 3rd at 10 am PST.
