Liminal View

In this body of work, Ryan reflects on a transitional period of time. Liminal View examines the state of being in-between and perpetual becoming.

Most of the paintings depict subjects that are literally transitional spaces, meant to suggest both the the anxiety of disorientation and the potential of new thresholds. Laying the groundwork for an experience of the uncanny, these familiar elements become foreign; similar to the way a common word will suddenly seem strange.
