Ryan McLennan

Ryan McLennan is in a two person show with Amy Ross entitled Taxonomic Intoxication opening today at Virginia’s Transmission Gallery.
The show features McLennan’s paintings of wildlife, which are entwined with surreal images of disembodied bears made of foliage. The imagery is quite striking and reminds me of artists such as Josh Keyes and Tiffany Bozic, whose paintings of animals is also used metaphorically to address socio-political topics.

I really like the way the work seems to be depicting violent actions, but yet it still has inanimate attributes that make the image have a haunting nature.
