In Earth 3 Exposito’s composition defies spatial perspective. Mapping out areas with quietly undulating tones, each hue claims a hierarchical order in the field of depth, setting up a system of optical rationale for painterly subversion. Using colour as a starting point for illusion, Exposito drafts a central motif of an impossibly twisted form; its blocky three dimensional suggestion delineated by flat graphic lines and off-kilter vanishing points that constantly float between foreground and distance.
