Meet the Artist
My work is an exploration of what it means to be human.
Where do we come from? Where are we going?
I feel a deep connection to celestial bodies and often use their symbolism in my art. I'm endlessly fascinated by the image of a moth drawn to the light—unaware of the danger, yet compelled to move toward it. Isn’t that, in many ways, what life is about? We are all somehow striving toward the light.
My paintings are created for the eye—they go beyond what words can express. That’s why I paint: to communicate something that transcends language and offers a sensation that places the viewer at the center of the experience.
I want to draw the viewer in and rekindle a sense of wonder—to remind us that there is something more to this life than a purely physical existence.
My art is a way back home.
– Anders "voidcoloured" Rath
