Josh Keyes opened his newest solo show Saturday night at the Jonathan Levine Gallery. Entitled Fragment, the exhibit continues to expand upon his signature aesthetic.
Rendered in clean, controlled and finely detailed realism, the paintings in Fragment feature various wildlife species isolated within habitats that foreshadow a theoretically dystopian fate. These fragmented landscapes are surrounded by a sea of empty white space, representing the universal unknown in an allegorical interpretation of the effect of contemporary civilization’s disconnect from nature.
Frankly, I find this guy's stuff pretty amazing. He can paint. The subjects are quite mesmerizing too. Plus there's some tags thrown in there for good measure.
