Randy Hryhorczuk’s landscapes are simple and spare, yet are imbued with emotional content; a storm welling up in the distance, the glow of an intense sunrise, a bleak pastoral horizon with a single soft box denoting a habitat. This imagery draws on our emotions and memories which finds a common thread in all of us.
“My desire to express isolation within basic environments moved me to deconstruct the traditions of landscape painting. I found elegance and beauty
in the aesthetic of minimalism and dadaism and wanted to direct an abstract body of work under the influence of these traditions.”
Randy Hryhorczuk was born in British Columbia Canada, 1974. Self-disciplined in oil painting and without formal training, he has been showing his work publicly since 2000 in Canada, the United States and Germany. His art is in private collections in Canada, the United States, Germany and Great Britain.
