Devon DeJardin makes beautifully rendered images of what look to be intentionally constructed piles of rounded stone forms. He uses a very sophisticated colour palette and chiaroscuro to model paintings of statues of a convincing bulk and heft. The forms sit outdoors, in landscapes, illuminated by dramatic Caravaggesque light. The light is otherworldly, unfathomable, it doesn’t seem to come from the weather. They look like they’ve been there forever, wherever there is.
