MOOD ESCAPE

Freya Douglas-Morris

To Freya Douglas-Morris, I came across your landscapes somehow and I find them incredibly wonderful. They manage to capture almost everything invoked by a scene–the wealth of hue, the latent mythology, and the sublimity of presentness that is both concrete and dislocated, leaving the memory to imagine various permutations of some detail–maybe a fern or a tree–shortly and long afterwards.

There’s traces of eclectic influences like Whistler, Nolde, Matisse, and the suite of Japanese woodblock artists. The lasting impression is delectably contemporary, with subtle iconographic patterns and intent naiveté marking the more recent work.
