MURRAY
EXPLORES NEW DIMENSIONS
Against
a scratched and striated, formless blushed blue backdrop, a portal
gapes. Bubbles emanate from its black depths, and cascading out of it
— yet still intricately linked with it — is a mass of both
defined and ghostly shapes, shifting, morphing, blending into one
another.
Is
it the inner landscape of the mind? Alien? Celestial? A depth of the
sea or the core of the earth never plumbed? Entitled “Out of the
Abyss Came Sweet- ness,” this work of watercolor and gouache is a
prime example of artist Linda Murray’s rich, flowing experiential
and surrealistic style that distorts and manipulates reality,
dimension, the mind and consciousness.
A
lifelong resident of the Kennebec River Valley, Murray — along with
several other local artists — currently displays her work at The
Sharpe Gallery in Kennebunk’s lower village.
