“My work is a response to the atmospheric, sublime qualities and spiritual essence that exists in landscapes. Using memory sketches and photographs, I paint on canvas, wood, and paper to explore scale, brushwork, and my emotional response to these images. I see timelessness in the work. A sense of tranquilly and serenity in this digital era.”
Ahzad Bogosian’s most recent work comprises intimate reflections on low horizons and dominant skies. Bogosian not only depicts the natural forces surrounding the Midwest – stormy skies, quiet fields, and waterways bathed in the warm glow of twilight – he also alludes to the intrusion of man into the landscape. The horizon vanishes into the distance. Autumn light unveils itself in the haunting stillness of the fields. An isolated vapor appears to be frozen in time. These are the real places of the Midwest – the rivers, the pastures, and hills where the vast sky is ever changing in its poetry of light.
