Martin Wittfooth’s oil paintings envision landscapes in the quiet and haunting aftermath of unchecked progress, pursuits of power and wealth, ignorance, and war: the forecasted dystopias of our time. Laced with symbolism and allusions to contemporary themes, issues, and fears, Wittfooth’s work attempts to engage both the eye and the mind of the viewer: an invitation to enjoy the aesthetic, but to also think of what may lie beneath it (and perhaps, ahead of us).

Wittfooth’s art has been published in a variety of media, including a large range of snowboards, album covers, and magazines and is owned by many international collectors. He lives and paints in Brooklyn, New York, where he draws visual inspiration from a variety of other artists, old Flemish paintings, frames, and mostly, but sadly, the news.

“Melting Season” is Martin Wittfooth’s second featured show at La Luz de Jesus.
