As passageway to an otherworldly dimension, a wooden ladder invites you to enter the clouds. Painted with masterful finesse, the timeless tableaus by Jeremy Shockley all have a meditative quality, inviting the viewer to travel with them, to wander in spirit. With an air of bittersweet tristesse, we sense a feeling of longing simultaneously for departure and return.
