Résumé

Maggie Taylor's digital photo collages have been described as a contemporary exploration of the Surrealist world view. In Taylor's strange, parallel universe, birds ride bicycles, ideas materialize in the shape of clouds, and wings sprout from the backs of prim Victorian women. Starting with objects that she finds on eBay, in flea markets, and in her own surroundings, Taylor then uses her flatbed scanner, Adobe Photoshop, and an Iris printer to produce images of surprising beauty and emotional impact.

Maggie Taylor's Landscape Of Dreams offers a close and richly illustrated examination of Taylor's practice, tracing her images from inspiration through execution. Taylor explains her influences, both in art and in her own life, and takes the reader inside the making of some of her intriguing, painterly work. Along the way, we hear from respected artists and critics familiar with Taylor's painterly images, and from the artist herself, in conversation with the author.

Illustrated with more than 65 color plates, Maggie Taylor's Landscape of Dreams is essential reading (and viewing) for all those interested in applying technology to a creative personal vision.
