About this artwork
This image contains the Greek Titan Atlas, which was condemned by Zeus to support the heavens from the westernmost point of the earth. After a confrontation with Perseus Atlas was turned from this to stone. So far, it still supports the sky as an Atlas Mountains. For example, Atlas represents strength, heavy burdens, stamina, power and oppression. In the painting Atlas does not lift the heavens but one eye. An eye as a motif can be connected with:…
perception, observation, observation and monitoring. The eye is used as a symbol in various contexts. Daniel Rosmaire (symbolonline.de) writes: "The eye is the most fascinating of the human senses. It is the most intense expression of the power of his soul and spirit. It is ambivalent and effective in both good and evil. "

« Our view is never innocent. This realization is, so to speak, the starting point of all my work. »
Moritz Jäger is an established Swiss artist with national exposure. His paintings address the thought patterns in which the human being perceives his surroundings, assigns meaning to the objects in them, and puts the whole into a seemingly closed system. Oscillating between surrealism and geometric abstraction, his painting offer an exploratory critique of the way we perceive and interact with the world around us, offering new opportunities for sight and interpretation.
