ZACH STORM
Painting | 2023
"When painting, I am often thinking about implying the passage of time. I am in a perpetual state of slowing myself down. By working slowly and intuitively, I give each mark the weight it deserves. I am concerned with making paintings that reveal their own history. The earliest layer remains visible just as every layer that follows. I want to give as much as I can to the inquisitive viewer. The imaginary landscapes contain both silence and tumultuous change.
In the After-Future there is an attempt to live and work within the ruins of the past. There is a feeling of dislocation and the need to relearn. The elements of the paintings appear to be placed on the canvases. The images are constructs based on cinema, dreams, fantasies, half-remembered texts and repeated phrases. The landscapes are scenes of contemplation, creation and communication."
