Thomas Geyer’s paintings portray real and imagined landscapes inspired by scenes from the country outside his home town of Leipzig. He works by recording his initial impressions in sketch form and then piecing them together to create new images.

People rarely figure in his paintings; instead, woodland creatures appear time and again, assuming the role of clandestine observers. His works throw the beholder back to a world of fairytale and myth, to a world in which there is more than meets the eye.
