]]>There is also a certain level of nostalgia to drawing on fogged windows. It is a habit we usually pick up as children and returning to it always evokes memories and oozes with the feel of escapism.
For German artist Jochen Mühlenbrink, this practice proved to be an inspiration for an intriguing series of oil paintings. Each of these artworks looks like a photograph of a fogged window taken moments after someone finished drawing on it.
Mühlenbrink’s paintings feature simple fogged window drawings like animals, emojis, and various incoherent lines. But what really draws the attention is the world that hides past that window, the world blurred with the fog and only hinted throughout the small cracks offered by the lines of the drawing itself.
“I am amazed by the obviously visible world. But this actually connects me more with the invisible. So steam or fog is just the medium at this time I use to show my fascination for the act of seeing,” Mühlenbrink shared in a recent interview with Overstandard.
