For this show, Jason Rohr (born 1999, Hausen AG) has reskinned automotive animals to contain still reflections of our environment–warped by our relentless human drive. These new landscape paintings don’t look back with nostalgia or mourn a pre-industrial past. Instead, they show nature as it appears now: distorted in the polished chrome of the very machines that broke it.
The landscapes are reflected in the figureheads of a system that reshaped the world–offering a view not through the rearview mirror, but head-on.
This is a show of new landscape paintings that ask us to consider the environment not as it once was, but as it is–filtered through our own making.
