Two Women on the Shore is a captivating new collection by Zachary Schomburg that reimagines Edvard Munch’s 1895 block print of the same name through a contemporary, expressive lens. Working in large-scale abstraction on raw canvas, Schomburg draws inspiration from the eight evocative colors in Munch’s original, using them as emotional anchors for his own visual language.

Each piece unfolds through bold gestures and atmospheric shifts, offering a meditation on memory, presence, and the space between figures. Schomburg’s compositions blur the lines between subject and setting—where the essence of two women on a shoreline becomes a broader exploration of companionship, longing, and the slow pull of time.

Rendered with a painterly sensitivity and a cinematic sense of stillness, this body of work invites viewers to experience both the echoes of Munch’s legacy and the immediacy of Schomburger’s vision. We invite you to see this striking collection in person and step into its quiet, resonant world.

Saint Anita II by Zachary Schomburg feels rhythmic, playful, and quietly architectural. A broad field of deep blue fills the canvas, layered in loose, rectangular strokes that create a subtle grid and a sense of structure beneath the surface. Vertical cream-colored forms punctuate the blue, each capped with vivid red, suggesting repeated figures or columns that feel both symbolic and abstract. Soft pink accents appear intermittently, adding warmth and a gentle counterpoint to the heavier blues. Along the right edge, a row of curved pink marks introduces movement and a slightly whimsical note. Overall, the painting balances order and looseness, conveying a feeling of measured repetition softened by intuitive, expressive color and touch.

Blue Bridge by Zachary Schomburg feels quiet, restrained, and contemplative.

A small, warm mark near the upper corner adds a moment of tension and contrast. Overall, the painting evokes a sense of pause and balance, minimal yet emotionally resonant, inviting slow looking and reflection.

Carrying a Big Thing by Zachary Schomburg feels bold yet contemplative. A large, organic red form dominates the canvas, its edges soft and irregular, with subtle tonal variations that create depth and a sense of inner movement. The red reads as warm and immersive, almost glowing against the calm, neutral background. In the lower corner, smaller areas of deep blue and muted ochre quietly anchor the composition, adding contrast without competing for attention. Overall, the painting has a meditative, elemental quality, simultaneously grounded and expansive, evoking emotion through color and form rather than narrative.
