Hagan's new exhibition explores animal intelligence and communication.
"Through my paintings, I try to capture each animal's essence in order to open communication between the animal, its surroundings, and the observer. I intentionally play with the perspective and alter the landscape so the viewer becomes keenly aware of the presence of the emotional intelligence present within each animal subject.
Working with these two very different ideas: surreal landscapes and life-like paintings of animals aids my process of creating work that I hope will be both striking and seductive. "- Darrell Hagan
