COLIN ALEXANDER, 28, NYC at NEW YORK MODELS
reflection isolation
F WORD: What are your top 5 interests?
COLIN ALEXANDER: Creative Direction within film. My dream is to actually direct one day. Photography is my second one as I've recently become obsessed with film photography, portraits specifically. Then physical wellbeing; “Your body is a direct reflection of who you are.” How do you want people to perceive you? Athletics and sports are there in the list as well. Sports have molded me into the person I am today. Swimming taught me discipline and the art of being concise, Then traveling. It's in the roots of who I am and once these travel restrictions are lifted my lens will be doing a bit of exploring.
F WORD: How have you been dealing with the whole isolation thing?
COLIN ALEXANDER: I have been thriving in solitary confinement; having the ability to think clearly without the feeling like the world is going a mile a minute is quite soothing.
F WORD: What have you been doing to occupy your time and mind?
COLIN ALEXANDER: I allocate my extra energy to those who need a helping hand. Raising my standards of where I see myself from a career standpoint to allow myself to attain new goals. Goal setting if we need to keep it short.
F WORD: How are you feeling about the COVID-19 pandemic?
COLIN ALEXANDER: “Unprepared & Unsure”... of the outcome.
F WORD: What are your thoughts on how your government and the world are dealing with it?
COLIN ALEXANDER: “Like a driver searching for the keys underneath the seat, found them, began to place them in the ignition... Fumbled and somehow got the car going..” There’s a lot for us to learn.
F WORD: Best thing you’ve been able to do since isolation:
COLIN ALEXANDER: Seeing my family.
F WORD: What do you miss the most right now (due to isolation)?
COLIN ALEXANDER: Photography. I have gone out a few times but there's nothing to document but empty streets. (Thankfully)
F WORD: What would be your perfect soundtrack for this time?
COLIN ALEXANDER: Lancey Foux - Life & Death.
F WORD: Can you suggest a movie/series/or book we should check out during isolation?
COLIN ALEXANDER: On Netflix there is this great movie called 'No Country for Old Men' and if you want something good to read; I'd say Alive by Piers Paul Read.
F WORD: A hopeful statement to encourage others:
COLIN ALEXANDER: Now is time for "reinvention & rebirth." and "The world is still turning & you’re on two feet."
