Biography

Adam Aleksander Bio (Quoted from PSFK)

Information overload in the digital space has turned social relationships into a mirage of connectivity. Yet, there still exists a promised land full of magicians whose sole purpose is to create worlds for you to make actual real memories.
Enter Adam Aleksander, a New York-based set designer who wears many hats in the creative community: art director, carpenter, producer, promoter and costume designer. Appealing to the quiet child in us all who still craves fantasy from our sometimes all-too-real lives, Adam conjures up dreamscapes to reel us in, re-ignite our jaded states and throw us back out the door, brushing stardust off our shoulders.
Leaving the School of Visual Arts hungry to learn more practical skills, he took up an internship with Randy Carfagno. Working his way up over 5 years he acquired set design skills, perfected ways to source material in this treasure trove of a city and acquired a philosophy towards costumes as ‘super multi-media.’
Racking up an experience list that includes prop styling for Madonna’s 2008 World Tour; the Macys Day Parade and Flower Show; Christmas windows for Saks and Lord & Taylor; clients such as Formavision’s Coca Cola Museum, Godiva and Victoria’s Secret, Adam Aleksander found that carving one’s own path might just get you Alice’s Wonderland.
