Breathing the Same Air 

"Breathing the Same Air" is a realist painting by Logan Maxwell Hagege, a contemporary artist born in 1980. The painting depicts a Native American couple standing in front of a red sandstone cliff, a recurring motif in Hagege’s work. The couple, dressed in traditional clothing and standing in a field of yellow flowers, is depicted with a level of intimacy and tenderness that allows the viewer to feel the quiet strength of their connection. The landscape, a mix of natural elements and cultural symbols, is a representation of the artist’s fascination with the relationship between humans and nature.
