CURRICULUM VITAE
Noah J. Landers (1995 - est. 2084) is a painter and illustrator. His work searches for comfort in clutter by simulating surroundings in painstaking detail, applying equal significance to every wrinkle and speck of dust, and underscoring the potential for eclecticism in every confined space. This level of hyper-attention fractures the "reality" of his subjects, elevating them into a realm of comic absurdity.
Noah received a BA in Film & Media Arts from Temple University in 2017, focusing on cinematography and animation. He has since applied this knowledge of image composition and lighting to his lifelong proclivity for visual artwork, which he produces on a commission basis, supported by word-of-mouth promotion within the artistic communities of Philadelphia and Los Angeles. His professional work extends across many mediums, from traditional paintings to digital animation.
