From a distance, Los Angeles-based Theodore Boyer’s works are reminiscent of satellite imagery and foreign landscapes. Up close, however, the tactile quality of the paintings emerges. The artist's recent bodies of work reference the cosmos through hand-dyes, bleach, and acrylic paint on stretched fabrics, blurring the line between the organic and the manufactured. Boyer derives much of his visual inspiration from scientific journals and images generated by NASA. He amalgamates these sources into new configurations with shaped canvases that are based on stitched satellite photographs. Referencing compositions and techniques by Land Artists and Abstract Expressionists before him, Boyer’s process points to the influence of technology without negating the artifice of his canvases as man-made objects.
