“Surrealism isn’t escape—it’s excavation.” — Eli Rowen
Artist– Eli Rowan
Eli Rowan is a contemporary American artist born and raised in Oregon, now based in Northern California.
Eli Rowen explores the edges of perception and memory through surrealist compositions that challenge spatial logic. His works often blend the mundane with the mythical—clock hands embedded in flowers, staircases leading into oceans, or porcelain animals whispering from forgotten shelves.
Inspired by dreams, antique machinery, and 19th-century medical illustrations, Eli's canvases evoke a quiet tension between beauty and disorientation. He paints not just what is seen, but what is half-remembered.
