With a connection to impressions of natural world phenomena, EJ Hauser’s layered and scraped artworks are defined by their percussive mark-making and deeply saturated colors. In a duet with herself, the artist synchronizes drawing and painting, eventually superimposing the two for a surface that feels both digitized and analog. Throughout her career, Hauser has accumulated an extensive index of forms—mountains, animals, waves—for her fabricated worlds. As markers of energy, Hauser’s paintings function as a burst of vibrancy existing in an everlasting present.
