Acrylics & Pop Culture
While Roger embraces automatism in his drawings, allowing his imagination to move freely, his approach to acrylic painting is one of precision and control. He enjoys moving between these two extremes—the freedom of the spontaneous gesture and the discipline of a precisely constructed image—like a pianist shifting from one composition to another. Cars, motorcycles, animals, VR glasses: the lines are solid, the colours bold, and the figures and objects sharply defined. Roger Haus’s visual language is recognisable through a distinctive palette of cyan blue, yellow, purple, and black, creating a sense of elegance, energy, and excitement. His animals often appear monumental and comical, surrounded by flames and theatrical backgrounds in naive style. Characters embrace and scream—leaving the viewer uncertain whether what unfolds is an act of protection, devotion, fear, or all three at once.
