The show garnered well over 300 pieces of international press, a three year extension of a show that was only intended to be a 4 month run and attractive Apple CEO for a personal tour of the show.

    They Say

    "I’ve been lucky enough to work with Alex on a few projects, and thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with him. Alex is full of ideas, has a wonderful imagination and delivers beautiful, original work."

    Peter Gabriel International Rock Star and Activist

    "Very impressive work!"

    Tim Cook CEO of Apple

    "Alex Mayhew lives and creates in the Multi-Present. Through his art, he sees - and challenges us to see - a multiplicity of possible realities and experiences in the moment. Fixed reality falls away, elements move and evolve and dissolve; relationships are formed and realized, transformations occur before our eyes. With his ReBlink show at the AGO, Alex activates smart devices as windows on a multitude of animated visions of traditional artworks that confront, confound, delight and entertain the viewer. When you gaze through Alex's magic window, you will see the world as he sees it: vivid, liquid, alive with imagination and possibilities; it is the Future that is here with us now."

    Robert Gould President & Owner at Imaginosis

    "a revelation (in every sense). An actual window on other realities, dreams, the imagination, and delight. If you have ever wondered if there are new ways of creating beauty, then you need to see this work."
