Descrizione: Also part of the “Ghost in the Towers” series, “Landlord” depicts what appears to be a calm landscape, evoking the image of houses lost in the countryside. It is through this sense of isolation that the theme of loneliness takes on its full meaning in this series. Here, loneliness is not simply about being alone; there are two houses in the painting, after all. Instead, it reflects a cold closeness to one’s neighbor, rooted in the concept of property ownership, hence the title “Landlord”, a house that is not yours.
In contrast to the blurriness and softness of the landscape, abstract shapes are painted throughout, adding texture and brutality to the image. The fact that the landscape is confined within a rectangle could even symbolize well-defined living spaces, reinforcing the idea of property.
