Venusian Landscape Series

A popular series in the “Venusian World Sculpture Collection,” the Venusian Landscape series furthers Ehlenberger’s interpretation of a fantasy luminous world of Venus.

This series of sculptures explores fantasy Landscapes with luminous vegetation, glowing lakes and craggy mountains. His distinctive approach to the V.. Landscape incorporates such media as silicone, translucent paint on brushed aluminum and back-lit lenses to evoke an other-worldly ambience.

Ehlenberger’s early landscapes were first executed in the western traditional horizontal format. However, as a result of his exposure to ancient Chinese and Japanese landscape painting presented in a vertical format, he began exploring landscapes in a vertical Asian style.

Subsequently Ehlenberger also developed a unique approach to the V. Landscape, the discScape. A smaller version of a landscape, 16″ in diameter, its shape alludes to the spherical shape of the planet.
