Description
Paradise is not a place we can locate geographically, yet we may identify somewhere as a paradise. If anywhere, its actual site is in the imagination, its meaning motivated by conscious and unconscious awareness over time of the difference between real and ideal, between flawed and perfect, between then and now. Mark Nisenholt gives us, from his journey back to Crete after more than thirty years, images of paradise, acute observations from the revisiting stranger's experience of the place and of himself. As it is for him, so it is for us: paradise is both a recognizable and alien state. Nisenholt has been able to synthesize the older technologies of drawing and printmaking with computer-diriven digital imaging resulting in a distinctive artistic method.
