Artist Statement
My work focuses on the changing and changed landscape, particularly the face of “nature” as altered by human intervention. I have come to the conclusion that technology (read: western man) writes or draws into a landscape just like an artist would draw on a sheet of paper – through and with technology forms are assembled and manipulated to compose a kind of environment that suits man’s needs.

In 1977, his family moved to Germany and settled in Munich. After completing his undergraduate studies at the College of Applied Sciences in Munich, Mühsam continued his art education at Montana State University, Bozeman, receiving his MFA in 1997. Following a 3-year-stay in Munich, Mühsam relocated to the United States, where he is currently associate professor of painting and drawing at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville, Missouri. | |
