Gregory Euclide Sculptures








Relief paintings by Gregory Euclide.



































Gregory Euclide has placed a set of sculptures inspired by the rocky mountain vistas over a floor-drawn map of denver.
The vistas’ positioning relates to the geographical site they have been extracted from, literally and figuratively. the sculptures are part of a series of captures euclide has made by pouring paint or liquid adherent over a natural setting. once dried, the materials capture dirt, plants and pieces of the ground, which become canvases for sculptural landscape painting and miniaturized terrain–turning the natural land into an idealized scene. by hanging the captures over their original location, euclide creates a multidimensional topography that makes both actual and idealized projections of the rocky mountain landscape.
