About the Item
"Fire at the Mountain" by Brooks Salzwedel is an original painting that depicts a forest scene in pastel colors with a warm background.
Brooks is a Los Angeles-based artist whose work navigates the emotional terrain between nature, memory, and constructed environments. Using a self-developed process that layers resin, wax, graphite, acrylic, semi-transparent films and mixed media, he builds meditative, dreamlike compositions. Fog-laced forests, icy expanses, and fractured wildernesses emerge, subtly interrupted by industrial remnants, intimate symbols, and queer-coded artifacts—quiet echoes of identity and impermanence.
A former National Parks artist-in-residence at Denali and White River, Salzwedel draws on his deep love of quiet places and overlooked details. His pieces have been commissioned by musicians like Novo Amor and institutions like LA Metro and the Guthrie Theater. He’s spoken on his process and themes at Gonzaga University, MOAH, and other venues.
Now working from his home studio in Highland Park, Brooks is expanding his creative reach—exploring multimedia storytelling, curatorial collaborations, and immersive sculptural works. His recent iceberg and forest series pushes further into concepts of vulnerability, permanence, and queer ecology. Whether through intimate terrariums or monumental dreamscapes, Salzwedel’s work invites viewers to reflect on how we carry history, trauma, and beauty across shifting emotional and physical landscapes.

Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Fence Jumper" is an oil painting with chalk and graphite on wood panel, and measures 16" high by 12" wide. It is finished with a clear resin across the surface, lending the artwork a particular warmth and liquidity that is rare and lovely to behold. Typical of the artist, the painting is a mystery despite its apparent simplicity – a boy, a young lad leaps over the fence, seen here mid-flight. It's clearly important to the boy. His focus and sense of achievement ring out. Drawn lines and painterly brushstrokes render the scene, but also note the toned wood coming through as color and texture. All of it held, as if in time, by the resin layer acting as a lens to both transmit this picture and admit light to the picture. A true artifact.
