Three distinct artists will present work that comments to
varying degrees on the state of the environment.
Ed Epping (left, top)
describes his latest series, Apprehension, as
an attempt to examine multiple conditions and qualities that
face him as a citizen of this country. He broadly uses the
concept of landscape in these works to include the physical and
mental-scapes he uses as subject, the internal and external
depths of those settings, and the layers of complexity
associated with each.
Shirley Mossman Nisbet's
work
is
derived from the varied landscapes she encounters during her
travels. She absorbs images of the light and atmosphere,
which she later translates into the interplay of light and space
in her paintings. Her most recent works feature images of
melting glaciers from Alaska.
Ryan Russell
(left bottom) creates landscape working on-site.
By using color intuitively rather than descriptively, Russell
conveys not only the physical existence of the trees but also
the feeling of being among them.
