Matthijs Röling (1943)
Garden (Looking for Tracks)
2005 | oil paint on canvas | 70 × 70 cm
This painting combines two common themes in Matthijs Röling's work: the male back and his own garden.
With a little imagination, the backs are even mirrored by the twisting hedge. Röling dreams of taking this fusion even further: to place someone in a garden and paint him in camouflage colours and then have him stand up. Just to see what happens next.
