About Paul Heyer
Paul Heyer’s playfully unsettling paintings envision a fictive world that defies natural order, wherein every form is changeable. Painted on polyester taffeta and in a state of constant transformation, trees grow luminous blue apples and branches sprout dangling brooms. His recognizable subjects take on new meaning while suspended within a non-specific amniotic realm. Hovering at the edge of the material world, Heyer recontextualized signifiers hold potential for infinite readings.
His recent work conjures a futuristic goth fantasy in search of transcendence. Activated by energetic brush strokes and throbbing with potentiality, his paintings embody transitional moments of becoming. His subjects simultaneously bloom, evolve, wither, and die, always on the verge of transformation.
