Taken from a statue of Julius Caesar by French sculptor Nicolas Coustou from 1669, artist John Hrehov places his copy in an elaborate labyrinth of greenery. The classical elements of sculpture, ionic column and greek temple are tied together by a bright green and blue palette in this perfectly balanced surreal scene. This piece is floated in a white wooden frame measuring 38h x 32w x 2d inches.

They are inspired by the comfort, trepidation, and beauty found in the mundane Chicago Suburbs. I combine nature, decorative house wares...
