The word trippy comes to mind here, but it might not actually apply. The quasi-mythological take on nature and the vibrating, prismatic color naturally suggest psychedelia but, overall, these are too controlled to be visionary. They feel, at times, like a collision of two equally impressive styles—luminous waveforms superimposed on carefully rendered plants and animals. These paintings are inventive and off-the-charts skillful but there is a slight disconnect between the subject matter and style. If this is an allegory about nature, then why does their meaning seem, ultimately, secondary to their technique?
