Noah Becker, The Prodigal Son, 2020
My work is about the figure in landscape and about installation or conceptual art practices. I'm trying to think about space in painting as installation and the landscape as a gallery space. Objects, figures and references to art history are installed in these landscapes or spaces as a way to consider form, shape and color. Graffiti is the texture of urban spaces and appears in the paintings to remind viewers that human interaction with the landscape has occurred. - Noah Becker
