Alex Coma is a Vancouver Island-based artist who builds what he calls "ritual machines" — immersive environments where oil painting, sound, scent, and sacred architecture converge to make the unconscious visible. Drawing on a decade of research into Hermetic traditions and archetypal psychology, his work has been exhibited across Canada, including a major solo show at the Comox Valley Art Gallery.

Drawing on a decade of research into Hermetic traditions and archetypal psychology, his work has been exhibited across Canada, including a major solo show at the Comox Valley Art Gallery. He's also the founder of Roze Umbra, a research platform and podcast exploring the edges of contemporary art and spiritual practice — where he's gone deep with figures like sculptor David Altmejd and alchemist Brian Cotnoir. Alex doesn't just make art about transformation. He engineers it.
