These paintings depict scenes from the studio, with varying degrees of fidelity to the objects and people they appear to represent. They often begin with a subject drawn from life, then are built up through a composite of other objects in the studio, as well as invented elements that complement the composition. The colors are pushed back and forth throughout the process, though they never settle on the studio’s actual white walls and dark gray floor. Some works incorporate the strong afternoon light that enters through the large west-facing window, while others discard a discernible light source in favor of flatter color.

About the artist:

Zack Rosebrugh primarily works in oil and gouache, creating paintings that emerge from small, everyday moments—a friend sitting, a building in sunlight, flowers on a table. These observations are pared down and rearranged until a composition feels both compelling and harmonious. His process is reminiscent of the French approach to landscaping: a shrub or tree carefully trimmed into a shape otherwise impossible in nature, inviting the viewer to appreciate not only the object itself but also the deliberate act of shaping it.

Zack Rosebrugh (b. 1993, Baltimore, MD) lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. He earned a BA in Film Studies from Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ (2012–2016). Rosebrugh’s recent group and duo exhibitions include Lush at Hashimoto Contemporary, New York City (July 2023); For the Love of Dog at Hashimoto Contemporary, Los Angeles (August 2023); Group Show at Lobster Club, Los Angeles (November 2023 and February 2025); Sexy Christmas VII at The Lodge, Los Angeles (December 2023); Left Unsaid at Hashimoto Contemporary, New York City (July 2025); Works on Paper at Hampstead Art Society, London, UK (November 2025); and Le Sentiment du Déjà at Galerie PJ, Metz, France (January 2026).
