Alexandra Lermer is a freelance concept artist, illustrator and stop motion filmmaker based in Regensburg, Germany.
Alexandra's work is textured and sculptural, capturing haunted and expressive characters. Since graduating from Nuremberg Institute of Technology where she studied film & animation, illustration and graphic design, her artistic versatility has led her to design for a range of international projects from short films to commercials to feature films.
Besides her design work, Alexandra is also a model maker, building sets for commercials as well as making puppets and props for her own projects.
