About the Work
Dreamy, surreal visions disguise as traditional landscapes in Neil Raitt’s tilted worlds. Familiar flora and fauna figure prominently in his compositions, yet their formations pry away plausibility — a forest radiates neon rose quartz, mossy caves reveal rainbow shores, a wolf-like silhouette creates a portal in the sky. In our new series of hand-embellished prints, Raitt explores core techniques of his practice. Based on the painting Coyote Moon exhibited during his 2021 solo exhibition at Anat Egbi Gallery, the meticulous nature of painted repetition creates a sense of machine-like manufacturing. Paired with expressive saturated color, Raitt uses symbols of the organic world to subvert our understanding of what it means to be artificial. Raitt says, “I was interested in various approaches to cloud formations, sunsets and starry nights. Forming the 'skin' of the coyote, fading suns and crescent moons spark something different to the character of the animal, creating a subtle presence in some of the darker moonlit nights, while jumping to the foreground in others through acid greens and yellows.”

MAT
Prints are hinged to a conservation quality, acid-free and lignin-free Cellulose matboard, using acid-free polyethylene cloth tape.
