The artist’s rigorously detailed surrealist work are stylized with formal Golden Period Dutch sensibilities, in addition to artists who belonged to the New Objectivity motion. within the dichotomy between conventional tropes and the uncanny, Bockler creates decadent scenes of abundance with an off-kilter attract that begs for a more in-depth look.

Gagner regularly employs self-portraiture as a car to seek for a deeper understanding of our foibles. His works are absurd self-contained moments that additionally trace on the limits of the portray and sculpture’s floor.
