Internal Landscapes

Ricky Sikes, Internal Landscapes explore the eerie, peaceful, chaotic and sometimes intimidating nature of the dense forests of home in Louisiana and other regions of the Deep South. “For me the woods are irresistible. They are a collection of varied locations and contrasts where every step possesses its own spirit. Every area I turn to, every lighting situation I encounter and every moment spent in the forest offers a mixture of stagnancy, motion and atmosphere which produces in me potent sensations of awe and presence.”
