Alex Face

Patcharapol Tangruen (aka Alex Face) is a well-known and highly collectible artist from Bangkok, Thailand. He studied architecture at Bangkok’s King Mongktut Institute of Technology and earned a bachelor’s degree in the Department of Fine and Applied Arts.

He created Alex Face, a character with an aged, disillusioned child’s face wearing animal costumes who is worrying about the future of our world. Alex Face’s art attempts to create a link with the urban population and the underprivileged of Bangkok.

Alex Face has participated in multiple group shows, and was part of a two-person show 'Mythical Creatures' with MueBon in 2019. His first full-gallery USA solo show 'FACES' was held at Vertical Gallery Aug 6-27, 2022. Vertical Gallery presented his first New York City solo show 'Impressions: Unrest' in October 2024.
