The Artist

Artist Statement

​

Timothy Gianelli paints imagined landscapes set at the edge of the known world. Paths, gaps, and openings pull the viewer toward spaces that feel distant, magnetic, and slightly off limits.

​

Working in oil on canvas, he constructs scenes that begin in the familiar and shift toward something less stable. Trees, sky, and ground hold together as landscape, but their logic is subtly altered, turning each painting into a threshold between invitation and warning.

​

His work is rooted in the pull of places that seem to ask for entry while suggesting they should be left alone.
