About Alexis

Alexis Howard is a fine artist based in Rock Hill, South Carolina, where she actively participates in her local arts community and maintains a studio space called Gentle Reminders Studio with her partner Dylan Bannister. Her work seeks to shine a light on everyday moments, objects, and spaces - to form a narrative through installations, photo books, and collages. After earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from Winthrop University in 2016, Alexis has exhibited her work across the Southeast, curated numerous exhibitions, and collaborated with a diverse range of artists to document their artwork and gallery exhibitions. In May 2024, Alexis self-published her latest photography book, Glimmer of a Memory, and hosted a solo exhibition of large-scale installation-based sculptural works inspired by the photographs.
