collapsed time







Joshua Meyer’s style of abstraction involves layers upon layers of palette knife paint. The dense and textural display of color creates solitary human figures that appear as though they’re standing at a distance, amidst deep murky history. The artist gives an interesting description, “I am always exploring. As I struggle with a painting over endless months, the colors, ideas, emotions, and experiences accumulate on the canvas. Meaning seeps out from in between these momentary contradictions. These paintings are collapsed time.”
