Lindquist’s work involves the layering of a vast array of imagery including the history of Freemasonry, Religion and Symbolism, the artist’s fascination with DNA and lineage, and how much of the above is interpreted by American Culture.

Lindquist’s aesthetic is straightforward and direct, focusing primarily on a single image, most often figurative, situated compositionally as the single focus of the painting. This figure is often distorted, limbs twisted, necks hideously elongated, body collapsing, eyes penetrating. A simple line of text, melancholy, sarcastic and humorous simultaneously, is captioned above the figure’s head, requiring the viewer to address this strangeness sitting before us. Often the reaction is empathetic and somewhat humorous as we address the absurdity we often encounter in our own lives. The power behind these images is used like propaganda , not to influence politically but to inspire the viewer to experience life more honestly and fully.
