In his paintings and prints of uncanny architectural and natural spaces, Alexander Squier takes us into a realm where human interaction with the environment is challenged and questioned. Plants, cacti, forests, and other elements spill out and over human built structures, asking us to consider the cycle of construction and destruction that we participate in, voluntarily or involuntarily. Squier's subjects range from the abstract to the realistic to the imagined, but this varied approach is centered around ideas regarding monuments, memories, and the lasting impact we have on our environment.
