Archiving from alex diamond on Vimeo.

Archiving my drawings 1 to 490 *.

I always said when (if !) I reach 500 drawings I’ll release them as a book. Ideally in a high-end Manga-like gem. So I am now working on three things:

1 - finishing the last 10 drawings. 2 - creating a printable file 3 - finding out where to print this

At the moment I am still open for suggestions for my research and contacts for printers. This cannot be done by one of the online-printing-giants for sure. I have a pretty good idea of how this should look … (check out

Let me know if you have any ideas. And continue buying the drawings as they in the end will most likely finance the book. ❤️

* why the asterisk? Ah yes, cos I wanted to let you know that many of the drawings I am archiving here are only printouts - from the ones sold. If you want to know which ones are available - drop me a note (aka DM). There is a pdf with all of them.

GONAKADET from alex diamond on Vimeo.

GONAKADET (2024) by Alex Diamond Woodcut, acrylic paint, 63 x 53 x 4 cm

The Gonakadet, commonly referred to as the Sea-Wolf, is a mythical creature in the Tlingit tradition of the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America. Simultaneously strong, generous and humble, the Sea-Wolf was said to bring great luck and wealth to anyone fortunate enough to spy it, or hear its soulful howl.

Gonakadet is said to be inspired by the Vancouver coastal sea wolves, which are found in the Great Bear Rainforest and in northern Vancouver Island.

This work was specifically created for the exhibition ULVEN+ at Galerie Wolfsen, Aalborg. Opening of the exhibition is Saturday, June 22. It is also the celebration of the 60’s birthday of gallery founder Kent Wolfsen. A great gallerist always has some Gonakadet in her/him - Kent for sure does.

PS: Sound samples used from Pigeon Hole’s „Wolf Pack“ and „The Island of the Sea Wolves“, spoken by Will Arnett

Saying goodbye to the boat but because it is maybe too sad for some of you to see this being taken apart ��� I put it all in reverse, so it looks like I am just building it! Yay!

This was my favorite exhibition of all times. Thank you everyone who visited, supported, promoted, appreciated and of course placed work in your collections! It was outstanding, I could not be happier. Thank you @melv12_ for opening the gates of your (!!!) @heliumcowboy gallery one last time for me

Alex Diamond x F. van Kreuzen: They all must be slaughtered from alex diamond on Vimeo.

Ok. Got four minutes and your speakers on? Here’s a walkthrough of my new exhibition, including sound. You really should watch till the end (surprise awaits). This is how my new show „They all must be slaughtered“ was presented at the opening last Friday at The MISSION by heliumcowboy .

The song „They all must be slaughtered“ by the Melvins runs on constant repeat (from Vinyl), and together with the light setting it creates the unique athmosphere I wanted for this exhibition, which is more like a play on a stage.
