Accompanied by certificate of authenticity signed and numbered by the artist. // Standing on the Moon by Wes Lang is a 2013 limited-edition archival print that fuses text, sketches, and symbolic imagery in a collage-like composition. The artwork features repeated motifs of skulls, Native American headdresses, skeletons, and handwritten notes that explore themes of mortality, spirituality, and American identity. Lang incorporates quotes, references to Walt Whitman, and phrases like A Procession of Blue Skies, weaving together a narrative that is both introspective and reflective on cultural heritage. The loose, sketchy style gives the piece a raw, unfiltered quality, echoing themes of impermanence and the search for meaning in a chaotic world. This complex visual tapestry invites viewers to interpret its symbols and phrases within their own understanding of life and death.
