David Uessem presents point blank the dichotomy of perception versus reality. So often throughout his œuvre, imagery of the eyes can only be inferred as foil foils the viewer’s capacity to fully understand the subject. “Love is a Verb” demonstrates a denial of vulnerability, curiosity and passion from the depicted subjects amongst a sea of other sentiments.
Uessem’s hyperrealist painting style is characterized by immense precision and his use of classic glaze layers. He acquired his precision and eye for the perfect subject while studying illustration at the IBKK in Bochum, Germany. Rarely does one find a flaw in his subjects, exhibiting a subdued elegance and grace as their feelings are muted by an undeniable lack of eye contact. When there is contact, it’s fleeting, producing even more intrigue in the viewer’s mind of why this veil rests upon their visage.
David Uessem will be displaying “Love is a Verb” a brand new series of captivating oil-on-canvas paintings
