Artist Statement

This is one of the first paintings I created on my return from China in 2019. Here I merge experiences I had in person with the digital experiences of observing different cultures, history and structures of art in the past, comparing these experiences with the fleeting, evolving need for something new in the present. This painting for me is also about questioning reality, which I have expressed through merging social media figures with my own lived experiences of visiting these historic spaces.

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.
