Exhibitions
“As a kid growing up through the early 1980’s, my sensibility of landscape space was heavily influenced by early video games and cartoons, long before I became exposed to painting as a history and practice. Now, landscape space is as much a mental space, as it is an illusionistic one.” – Cable Griffith
Mythology, technology, and pop cultural representations of nature intermingle with real places and experiences to create the expansive and beguiling wilderness of Cable Griffith’s Uncanny Twilight. Steeped in the history and practice of painting, the artist’s paintings, works on paper, and paintings on hand-dyed canvas invite the viewer into a mysterious state and place between real/imagined, tangible/ethereal, interior/exterior, and digital/analog.
