THROUGH THE MIST

2021 - 2022

Oil on shaped canvas panel

1470mm (H) x 1655mm (W)

Moffat's contemporary realist painting are an attempt to make sense of the digital world we inhabit. Through AI and smart technology, the boundaries between the real and the imagined, the human and the machine, have become increasingly blurred. Via the act of technically brilliant painting, the artist seeks to reflect a potential future back to us, creating something of a paradox; the hyper real scenes are clearly fantasy, and rendered reality through being painted.

About the Artist

Logan Moffat

Since graduating from Elam with BFA Honours in 2018, I have continued to paint, exhibiting in a number of solo and group exhibitions. In 2018 I received the New Zealand Adam Portraiture Award for my painting "Elam". I've continued to explore the portrait since. Expressing primarily in oil paint, my focus on capturing the portrait has evolved over the years. My earlier portraits were direct observations of subjects that I captured in detailed, realistic portraits. My focus now is on capturing the audience's portrait through encouraging introspection and a moment of pause - though amalgamating the elements of figures, environment, size and structure of the painting and canvas.
