Product details
Exhibition catalogue, interview with the artist by Sean O'Toole.
he is the ultimate 'urban man' endlessly, indeed almost compulsively fascinated with the social interactions that weave a magnetic field of both attraction and repulsion.'
Meyer's milieus are indeed populated by urban warriors: captains of industry and their colleagues, competitors or consorts. His imagery evokes interplay between two highly-charged environments, namely boardrooms and bedrooms. O'Toole also locates analogies between Meyer's imagery and that of crime writer Raymond Chandler, whose finely wrought prose significantly influenced American film noir.

ARTISTS STATEMENT
One could say Im obsessed with the magical properties of paint, with the process that allows for and unlocks the magic. It all depends on where you direct your energy.
Generally, because ones not witness to the private process of an artists creativity, we are not party to the experimental nuances and resulting struggle in the painting process, and that prevents us from completely understanding the artists intent. If we accept that we see the world around us in various tones, shapes and patches of colour, rather than their defining contours, we realise that a single brushstroke can be anything it may suggest to us. The complex layering of painterly tones, placed in apparently random order, creates the stage for a personal search. Here I indulge my need to escape from an increasingly intrusive world.
