Juxtapoz Magazine - Gregory Euclide's "Assembled Lands"
Briefly

In his solo exhibition 'Assembled Lands,' Gregory Euclide redefines landscape art through mixed media assemblages that combine photographs, drawings, and foraged natural materials. These artworks challenge conventional categorization, emphasizing the artist's detailed observation of nature. By deconstructing landscapes into their individual components—such as textures and colors—Euclide fosters an immersive experience for viewers, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. His work prompts an exploration of nostalgia, present realities, and future possibilities, offering a fresh perspective on the interconnectedness of the human experience and the natural world.
Euclide invites us to explore worlds where he blends the real and imagined, objects, and materials to evoke feelings of nostalgia and question the reality of the present moment.
By breaking down the whole to reveal the sum of the parts, each fresh glance reveals a unique moment full of textures, shapes and colors.
In Assembled Lands, Euclide explores ideas surrounding nature and the human experience, utilizing mixed media assemblages that defy traditional landscape painting.
These non-traditional observations of nature are collaged from original photographs, paintings, drawings and natural organic materials Euclide forages from the prairie.
