About

Alex Olszewski is a photographer from Atlanta, Georgia, who currently resides in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Their work spans observational and conceptual approaches, exploring observation, memory, and the quiet details of everyday life. Through a focus on ordinary moments and the act of noticing itself, Alex draws attention to the subtle beauty embedded in daily experience. Their images often encouraging viewers to slow down and engage more thoughtfully with what surrounds them.

Working primarily with analog processes, they value the discipline and patience that film demands. Each frame is approached with intention, allowing time, light, and atmosphere to shape each image. Their photographs reflect both the physical and emotional textures of live experience, creating work that feels contemplative, grounded, and deeply attentive to detail.
