The uncanny picks up on aspects of the terror sublime, emphasizing the conditions whereby in addressing the experience we are also confronting a strange and often unsettling otherness.
~ Simon Morley
The Santa Ana paintings describe the often brutal intersection between the built landscape and the rhythms of nature. Uncanny and otherworldly, they speak to the terror sublime, impermanency, and to how our very conception of nature and wildness are progressively influenced by the artificial.
