Gregory Euclide ’s relief paintings deal with the contradictions between the projection of idealized, as the artist says in his statement:
“My work explores the way we experience nature and how this is tied to the cultural practice of constructing landscapes as idealized images.
When we are in nature we experience the world through all of our senses in a dynamic way, but at the same time we are framing what we see through the cultural expectations we have absorbed through representational systems [...] It is impossible, then, to have a true, non-mediated experience of nature even though we may long for it…”

Human Motions is an amazing rapid-prototyping sculpture project by Peter Jensen in cohoperation with Materialise-MGX…
“Based on his ideas on transposition and movement the artist Peter Jansen uses shapes of the human body to create energetic spaces.
In his earlier works he focused on open spaces, created almost free of matter and weight.
In his recent sculptures he captures sequences of human movements in space and time, in a single frame.”
Love them.
