I learnt about Chris Natrop from laissezfaire, an all time favourite blog of mine!

Chris' work is a response to the unseen forces that shape lives. He uses "landscape" as a language to reshape hidden factors into explicit formations. The artist who graduated from B.F.A. School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1993, makes fleeting elements opaque by visualising the invisible. The results are ethereal creations that are hauntingly beautiful - familiar yet like nothing you have seen before. Oh, don't we love the seduction of the sublime.
