Dan
Ragland
| For more than ten years, Dan Ragland has been creating psychological self-portraits, tapping into his dreams and fears, transforming himself with the expertise of a chameleon. His new works continue to look inward, as isolated figures, eyes closed, appear to float within the frames. These contained portraits are both comforting and haunting, restrained yet vulnerable. The head of a woman rests on white chiffon, emerging from blackness; A man in profile stares outwards, his face disappearing into the air, becoming an apparition. It is this duality that Ragland’s new work seeks to explore -- to present pieces which are tempting yet dangerous, revealing untold narratives for the viewer to construct. |
