Art Analysis
A fragmented sun-drenched map of the West Coast
Lerson utilizes the medium of collage to navigate the chaotic energy of the urban environment, blending vintage aesthetics with a pop art sensibility. By manipulating the viewer's perspective, the artist creates a personalized landscape where landmass geography meets the shifting light of a coastal summer. The composition feels both structured and spontaneous, mirroring the organic growth of a city against a maritime backdrop.
The work explores varied lighting conditions, casting a nostalgic glow over reflective water surfaces and dense architectural forms. This interpretation of the cityscape invites a closer look at how diverse living environments intersect, from the busy streets to the quiet conservation of aquatic spaces. Encased in a classic frame, the portrait orientation emphasizes the verticality of modern life while maintaining a warm, sun-drenched atmosphere.
Lerson uses layered materials to build a tactile representation of the Californian shoreline and its unique geography.
The photograph mirrors the dense, overlapping layers of life found within the city's transit and street networks.
The work draws inspiration from the way light bounces off urban environments and water, resulting in a shifting visual experience.
