Alexandra Beteeva

Introducing Alexandra Beteeva (b. 1999) @getbeta , a British artist painting figures in spaces that feel familiar yet unreachable. Alexandra paints memories of moments she never witnessed. Her approach combines traditional craft with a contemporary sensitivity to material, narrative and feeling. “I am drawn to the tactile and the handmade, to a slower, deliberate process that allows reflection. This connection to representational practice is central to my work and identity.” Alexandra is a recipient of the Euan Stewart Memorial Prize for Printmaking, RSA New Contemporaries 2024 and Bloomberg New Contemporaries 2023 (@new_contemporaries ). She graduated with a BA in Painting and Printmaking from the Glasgow School of Art in 2022. She has been selected for the Hospitalfield Graduate Residency Programme 2023–24 and the Royal Drawing School Printmaking Residency in 2024 and 2025. Artwork list: 1. Lies the happiness of each day, 2025, Oil on canvas, 67 x 119 cm 2. What song should I sing for you, my dear?, 2025, Oil on canvas, 30 x 40 cm 3. Forgive me for asking, 2025, Monotype, 56 x 39 cm 4.

Thank you @bellabonner for including me as one of @artsy ’s highlights at @newcontemps ! 💖 I’m currently preparing for an upcoming printmaking residency and spending a lot of time in the studio working on a new project. I’m super excited to share my work here soon! 💌 #newcontemps #camdenartscentre

This is @theo.wilkinslang.studio ’ project from 2022, taken around the time I was graduating from @glasgowschoolart . Now, one month away from the RCA degree show, I’m revisiting what is still the coolest studio portrait. Around that time a lot of unexpected things were happening, including filming for @artistoftheyear (how about that). I wasn’t able to go to the RCA back then either, which makes this all feel slightly full circle. Anyway, this is my way of saying come see the degree show! 17th–21st June, @rca_painting

POSTPONED Unfortunately, there has been an issue beyond DMZ’s control with the exhibition venue that means we are having to postpone this show. The show will still go ahead at a future date. We are working together with the venue to confirm a new date for the opening and the rest of the show. If you have booked a ticket through Eventbrite, you should be contacted soon about changes to your ticket. We look forward to welcoming you to the exhibition at a future date. ‘the images astound you’ my contribution to my studios group show! @dmz_studio featuring artworks by: Meg Auld @megauld_ Alexandra Beteeva @getbeta Lotte Cassidy @lotte.cassidy Spencer Dent @_spencerdent Anna-Lena Kokoska @annalenakokoska Malenke Kokoska @mal1235 curation and poster by Spencer Dent @_spencerdent private view in the 15th May at Sheena Simon Campus, 42 Chorlton Street also my first show since I’ve moved to Manchester <333
