Danish artist Thomas Ovlisen’s process mimics that of auto-body shops; his visual inspiration is derived mainly from weathered cars, the worn-down layers of lacquer revealing the forces of nature on its utmost adversary. Beyond this, however, the paintings may be also seen as abstract landscapes. Layer after layer is applied, sanded down, and built up until a kind of emotional memory is satisfied, evoking the layers that weather and time generate on natural landscapes through the spans of geological epochs.
