“The Resistance” by Josie Morway

“Josie is one of my best art friends and one of the most skilled painters I know. Her work depicts intensely detailed animals—often birds—with occasional bits of human detritus. They are often allegories for climate change and the human impact on the world, all told with a very striking absence of actual humans. I love her painting for this show so much—the blindfolded falcon is such a fantastic metaphor for how we try to look towards our own future. I don’t know that ‘sci-fi’ is something you might normally associate with Josie’s work, but I love how she stretched herself just a little bit and absolutely nailed it.” – Listfield
