Opera Gallery London is delighted to present a new exhibition by leading Swiss contemporary artist Andy Denzler, featuring 20 new works created during the lockdown.

Anatomy of the Mind refers to our capacity as humans to use our minds to travel, even when our physical bodies cannot. What distinguishes this unique series of paintings is the contrast between the still figures and the dystopian landscape. As explained by the artist:

I have painted these new works during lockdown at a time when traveling was not possible. I started to paint these places of longing; it is a form of escapism and a desire to create invented places. Rather than just telling stories or documenting a certain situation, my paintings depict people in a new light. The invented landscapes are the results of multiple layers of different images. The possibilities are endless.
