We live our lives surrounded by the infrastructure of our society. Still, most of us never see it, or perhaps more properly never really look at it. I am fascinated by the shapes and textures of this unseen landscape of technology. These enormous machines make our lives possible and yet the details of their functions often remain a mystery. Their metal and concrete geometries seemingly epitomize the domination and control of our environment but they exist along side of, and are juxtaposed with, elements of the organic world that can never be totally pushed aside.

Description: Dean Russell Thompson - Artist & Printmaker - Images of an Unseen Landscape
Dean Russell Thompson is a full time artist and printmaker working in Loveland Colorado. "I love the process of printmaking. It is a cerebral activity allowing plenty of time experiment and to contemplate the desired result. At the same time, the marks can be very expressive and spontaneous, in their own indirect way. Working in multiple processes as I do, I have a nearly infinite range of combinations and characteristics that can be brought to bear on an image. At the same time, in order to harness that flexibility, you have to be meticulous with your processes. It must appeal to the geek in me."
