In this image Dutch photographer Marie Cecile Thijs combines a dandelion and rose to form a fantastical flower that nevertheless possesses a mesmerizing sense of realness. Floating freely in space against a muted, empty backdrop reminiscent of a Dutch still life, The Dandelion Rose embodies the captivating mix of both hyper-real and imaginative elements for which Thijs is so well known.

One of the pioneers in Korean Modern Art movement, Kim Tschang-Yeul is famed for his depictions of water droplets, a motif he began exploring over fifty years ago after moving to Paris in 1969. The emblem is simple but fluid, at once channeling the irony of Pop Art, the symbolic grief of war, and the sense of harmony sought in Eastern philosophy.

Painter Lori Dubois’ seascapes are abstracted, and often tumultuous. In this winter scene, the horizon is demarcated by dark, muddled line across the canvas, with the sea and sky seemingly mirroring one another in ice blue and periwinkle tones. It’s easy to imagine the silence of the scene, which I find both tranquil and calming.

For over 30 years, aerial photographer Klaus Leidorf has captured aerial scenes from the window of his Cessna 172 aircraft. In this work, Leidorf highlights the vastness of the sea by juxtaposing the richness of its deep color and rippling waves with the minuscule brightly colored boat cutting through the waves.

Tom Hammick, Terrestrial (2017). Courtesy of Galerie Boisserée.
An enormous moon lights the way in this scene of a nightly stroll, which seems to almost magically attract the anonymous group of walkers who venture resolutely into the darkened woods. British painter Tom Hammick, who has a penchant for ambiguous, nocturnal scenes describes his works as “imaginary dreamscapes. ” I find a certain sense of melancholy in the moment, which seems almost derived from a cinematic vision of dystopia.

Sohan Qadri, Untitled (2010) Courtesy of Kumar Gallery.
The Rothkoesque way these fields of scarlett and deep plum bleed into each other is absolutely beautiful. Qadri, who was born in British-ruled India and lived for over 30 years in Copenhagen, created ink and dye works that were meant to a meditative tranquility as well as the vivid beauty of his homeland, as seen in this work.

Romeo V. Tabuena was a Filipino painter and print-maker who embraced Cubist and geometric patterns. Here, Tabuena brings the viewer into this tropical dream-like landscape, the pink hue used in this painting is quite enchanting.

Fischer’s sculptures are intriguing optical forms. The shifting undulations and fluorescent sheen are more commonly seen in digital renderings, but Fischer is able to translate this language through the meticulous use of acrylic materials. The work suggests a sense of galactic wonder built into seductive gem-like compositions that are just as fascinating in-person as in photographs.

Robert Adams, Expressway, Near Colton, California (1982). Courtesy of Peter Lund.
California is rarely depicted in such moody and melancholy black-and-white scenes as this. Here, the misty highway glimpsed through the thicket trees made me pause and consider how our need for speed and convenience has affected our vision of the natural world.

Yigal Ozeri, P5950328 (2018). Courtesy of Amy Li Gallery.
This photograph of a New York City hot dog cart and some passing pedestrians has an almost Pop art effect with the saturated hues of yellow, blue, and red, and a seemingly innumerable clutter of signs busily pulling the eye in many directions. The effect is inexplicably comedic.
