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.

The LA Port
By Brooks Salzwedel
Located in Philadelphia, PA
"The LA Port" is an original 4”h x 6”w x 1.5”d drawing, painting, and mixed media process piece of artwork created in a vintage tin. Magnets may be used to display this piece on a wall instead of on a shelf or similar surface. Please note in your order that you would like to receive the magnets if you wish to display the piece on the wall.
This piece was originally displayed as part of "Deemed a Canvas" at Paradigm Gallery + Studio in Philadelphia in 2018.
Brooks Salzwedel’s work focuses on natural and unnatural landscapes disconnected from their usual surroundings or places in time. Using a self-created process involving materials such as graphite, mylar and resin, tape, colored pencil, and ink, his work evokes feelings of desolation through haunted, dreamlike visions of otherworldly terrains. Ancient trees, decaying flora, and icy mountains obscure long forgotten places and objects, at once familiar and unrecognizable, creating a space for rumination that challenges the relationship to their meaning.
Salzwedel received his B.F.A. from the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, in 2004. Salzwedel graduated with honors and distinction quickly landing a solo show with NewSpace Gallery, Los Angeles. The same year Salzwedel also procured a high-end line of handmade belt buckles in the same process winning him the Best Belt Designer in Los Angeles by Los Angeles Magazine as well as one of LA’s top five accessories designers by Los Angeles Times Magazine West.
He has been chosen as the Artist-in-Residence of the most visited National Forest in the U.S., White River National Forest, Summer 2017. In 2015, Salzwedel was Denali National Park’s visual Artist-in-Residence. He also won Los Angeles Metro poster...
