Chase Langford’s distinctive visual language is grounded
in the natural and built environment while embarking into
uncharted territory. His impactful depictions recall maps
and aerial photography of sea coasts, mountains,
farmland and cities through a calculated execution and
highly refined draftsmanship.
Just as the West Coast Abstract Expressionists (1940 to
1970) found California’s striking landscape fertile ground,
so does Langford as he draws upon his geographic
environs both near and far.
Through his cartographic lens, Langford contorts and
synthesizes geographic elements, bringing forth paintings
that are mysteriously familiar yet surprisingly
unconventional. They challenge conventions of
geography and landscapes, offering invigorating visions of
space and place that transcend any specific locale,
leading us to an exhilarating emotional experience.
