statement

As a painter, Logan's body of work explores issues of existence and the uncertainty of knowledge in both physical and spiritual domains. Specifically, his works are a meditation on silence endeavoring to unearth a sense of the sacred in the world. Each painting is worked and reworked, allowing images to disappear and emerge, until they reach a state of silence- a half step suspended between a pilgrimage and a conclusion. In this way, the work is more liminal than it is concrete and beckons towards that which is just on the precipice of comprehension. Architect and master builder Josef Hueber said, "As with the mind, light should also fill the room."  To that degree, as I work against a space of uncertainty, I too wish to fill it with light.

Philosophically, Logan is concerned with the capacity for artwork to be veridical and the artistic practice used to facilitate belief-informing processes.
