Regin Igloria:
The Legacy of Mountainous Prairies |
 |
With an
eye to nature as a romantic ideal, Regin Igloria
explores how we carry the wilderness along with us, both
psychologically and as a visual souvenir. Two small paintings here
recall classic picture postcards, while
hand-drawn decals combine gear-happy catalog imagery with
Thoreau's forest-friendly musings,
merging commodification and commemoration. Nearby, large ink drawings
make mountain peaks out of heaps of
jogging strollers and
road-workers' vests, as if dreaming
nature into being from fragments of suburban life. Igloria compares
the slow, steady process of making his detailed drawings to mountain
climbing; maybe it's no surprise that at the end we get such a
remarkable view. - Karsten Lund |
