Jakob

Lukas Leisinger - Jakob

Part of a triptych, this painting portrays a man lost in reverie, he is softly blurred as if dissolving into the moment. He stands in front of a carpark entrance that shrouds him and his surroundings in a luminous yellow light. The overall worn out feel of the painting lends itself to the idea of the passage of time and the fragility of recollection.  The scraping technique reveals underlying layers of paint, suggesting how memories fade, shift, or are altered by time, there is also a sense of nostalgia as both personal and collective histories blur into one.
