Excert from a short text by Sasha Bogojev:
Drawing blind, drawing contours, left handed drawing, speed drawing, drawing to metal, and drawing intoxicated all resulted in a visual language that is spontaneous and free. Scenes of lavish parties during or before a big battle. Madness, suspence and ignorance. In this manner he is using the compositions of historical paintings such as "La Liberté guidant le peuple" and "The Raft of the Medusa" but replacing the politically charged masses with modern day festival crowds. Influenced by the tensions present in the world today, Eilers' drawings shout "The world is burning. Close your eyes and dance, dance, dance."
