He has worked with such notable designers as Richard Avedon, Richard Artschwager, and Gregor Oberst. He has also worked as a game designer for the San Diego Comic-Con and as a designer for the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender film. His current work, The End of the Line, 2002, is a two-dimensional painting, on canvas and paper, of a line drawing of the border between Mexico and the US, drawn with a brush and a marker. The border is a combination of the Mexican and the American lines, and it is used to delineate the border between two countries, thus delineating an intergovernmental boundary that, in the context of the current crisis in the US, is both symbolic and real.Mohrhauser has also been a writer for the New Yorker, where he has worked closely with the publisher to develop an extensive biography of himself. The exhibition features a selection of his published texts, including a catalogue raisonné of Mohrhausers writings, an interview with the artist, and a map of the US border with his country of origin. It is a powerful testament to the intersection of history, culture, and art.

The artist focuses on character design with reference to Native American tribal clothing, and samurai combat war, clothing gear. His art is often based on cultural stereotypes, and he is a fierce competitor with the Western videogame industry. His works are often made up of black-on-black and red-on-red paint and also feature various tattooed figures. His colorful and often-rehearsed style is based on a desire to create a form of painting that is both visceral and realistic, yet simultaneously impersonal and open to the imagination.Mohrhausers recent show consisted of two works, both of which are monumental in scale and are also highly abstract. One work, which is roughly ten feet tall, is a three-panel, three-panel wall drawing in oil on canvas. In the top panel, Mohrhauser has painted a variety of motifs over a surface pattern of black, white, and red, as well as various lines, circles, and small words. The middle panel consists of a white-on-white drawing of a small circle with a cross, a figure in silhouette, and a small red circle. The bottom panel features a black-on-red, two-panel painting of a circle with a red cross, and a small red cross.The third work, which is about four feet tall and consists of three separate panels, is a three-panel painting. The lower panel features a red-on-red painting of a circle with a circle on top. The top panel is a red-on-red painting of a circle with a red cross and a circle on top. The bottom panel is a red-on-red painting of a circle with a red cross and a red cross. The top panel is a red-on-red painting of a circle with a red cross and a red cross.

The artist focuses on character design with reference to Native American tribal clothing, and samurai combat war, clothing gear. His current work is focused on the fantasy world of the samurai and its relationship to the technological age. His latest exhibition, entitled Death of a Samurai, consisted of four series of paintings, a video, a sculpture and a set of sculptures. Mohrhauser has been working in the realm of the mythical, and in this case he has created a world that is both real and imaginary. The video, Death of a Samurai II, 2002, is based on a Japanese video that Mohrhauser saw when he visited the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The video shows Mohrhauser and a group of friends posing in front of the Statue of Liberty. The group performs a martial arts maneuver, striking each other with their swords and knives. They then proceed to attack the Statue of Liberty, which is covered in blood. The action is repeated over and over again, and the audience is left with the impression that the group is fighting for their lives. Mohrhauser has said, Theres a feeling of elation in the moment when the attacks have ceased and the blood is finally visible. The video also contains an excerpt from an episode of the television drama Wing Commander. In this episode, the heroes are given a new weapon, the laser, which they use to destroy enemy forces. Mohrhauser has said, The laser is a metaphor for a kind of death wish. It allows the samurai to possess the weapon and control it. The artist has likened this gesture to the wish to possess. Mohrhausers works incorporate video, sculpture and video projections as well as paintings, photographs, sculptures, and other media. They are essentially two-dimensional projections that depict three-dimensional space and the three-dimensional figures. These works are also two-dimensional projections, but with a difference. Mohrhauser combines video with video projections to create an environment that both operates on and in terms of two-dimensional space. His works are not projections in the usual sense.
Mohrhauser is a proponent of the intersection of technology and culture, and of a cultural identity that is at once unique and universal.
