Exhibit Description
The pastoral is an idea; a landscape that lives in the mind, in memory, and in the utopian impulse. The exhibition uses landscape as subject, frame, or referent to ruminate upon the urgent need to respond: to the observed universe, to the woods as we find them, and the walled gardens we build and live within. A dewdrop captures a passing cloud as effortlessly as a cat becomes a portal and a creek becomes a cosmic mirror. Although these works range widely in scale, tone and tenor, most of the paintings were made in one sitting.
