Jan is a Slovakian artist whose work examines a scalar confusion of figure and landscape. At first they appeared separately, vast, smooth-seeming pieces of bodies and surfacey land. His best work places bodies on vast geographical scale: a woman waist deep in a planet her own size, a man hovering above a city, a figure either blue or in atmospheric perspective, toes on islands.

about 5'x7', 2008, I think. I just went to his studio and took these pictures because it's not up on his site yet.
