Interior Exterior Paint consists of a series of paintings depicting spaces and locations inhabited and visited by the artist. With the absence of people within any of the scenes, the paintings share a sense of stillness and tranquility. The subject matter consists mainly of locations the artist has lived, including the house Max grew up in and snapshots of his current and former share houses.
Max’s intention with the works is to capture the feeling of the spaces that have shaped his daily life. Max seeks to portray the subjects with visual accuracy while capturing his familiar and/or nostalgic relationship with the spaces through composition and expressive paint application.
