    patrick lundeen / Patrick Lundeen engages with the creation of iconic imagery in his large cut-out canvases. Familiar or comforting symbols become strange as they are altered by Lundeen’s process. A figment of Lundeen’s imagination is represented by associating it with a found image that appears approximate, Lundeen then paints from that “reality’’. The painstaking process evident in Lundeen’s work is reflective of the impossibility of fully re-creating the original thought; small marks of paint are applied one by one resulting in the fragmentation of the image. Patrick Lundeen holds a master’s degree in visual arts from Concordia University. His work has been exhibited in Canada, the United States and extensively in Europe; he is represented by Wetterling Gallery in Stockholm. patricklundeen.com Patrick Lundeen Spiderman #1, 2008, acrylic on canvas, 7' x 4.5' © Patrick Lundeen, 2008 Slightly uncanny FEB. 19  mar. 22 2009 |
