Sohn von Zwielicht
Markus Oehlen's *Sohn von Zwielicht* is a visceral and energetic work executed in acrylic and spray paint on canvas, combining gestural brushwork with the raw immediacy of aerosol application. The painting pulses with layered marks and forms that oscillate between figuration and abstraction, reflecting Oehlen's characteristic blending of neo-expressionist impulses with influences drawn from graffiti and digital culture. The title, translating roughly to "Son of Twilight," evokes a sense of ambiguity and liminal tension that resonates throughout the work's turbulent visual surface.
