Screen Studies

Screen Studies examines the translation of cinematic perception into painting. 

Fragments, cuts and distorted bodies emerge from screen-based imagery and are reassembled painterly events. 

The works oscillate between control and disruption - where images are no longer seen, but reconstructed. 

TRANSCRIPT (00:02:11) “I chose my name: DAVID”, oil painting by René Stanger, cinematic scene translated into painting, combining screen interface elements with figurative composition, exploring identity and artificial presence.
Soft Target, oil painting by René Stanger, expressive figurative painting with blurred contours and tense posture, exploring vulnerability, control and mediated imagery.
Frameshift, oil painting by René Stanger, fragmented figurative composition with layered brushwork and distorted spatial structure, exploring cinematic perception and image disruption.
For all the foam born, oil painting by René Stanger, distorted portrait with dense layering and enclosed figures, exploring bodily fragmentation and image memory.
