"Ghost California" Painting by Artist Florian Roeper

About the Item

"Ghost California" is the California Dream dressed in black. This gold leaf painting plays with archetypal icons of California culture. The sun, gold, an arrow, Redwood. The arrow, shot at a golden sun (or is it a halo?) with a stark black bullseye, must kink itself to make its mark. The map of California is laser cut wood, lacquered black and filled with multiple coats of high gloss epoxy resin. One of a kind. "Ghost California" is part of Roeper's new High as a Kite Series, a selection of mixed-media paintings reflecting on the nature and pursuit of dreams, and the inherent challenges in achieving them. The works consist of appealing and novel imagery, butterflies, balloons and halos, grounded or contorted by reality. Pared down compositionally, the pieces make use of explicit graphics as visual punchline.
