Zurich-based artist Andy Denzler’s work, which we spotted over at Booooooom, is a fuzzy, semi-surreal reminder of the times we live in. The paintings feel like paused VHS tapes, harsh analog moments captured on scratchy film, a now obsolete textural visual quality. Up close, you can see the softness of the oils and the haze of the brushstrokes, which lend the paintings a satisfying internal contradiction. Light against dark, hard against soft, new against old, we think (if you’ll forgive us for the impending pun) they’re worth pausing for.
