There is not a more dominant inspiration behind my work than the open, expansive landscape. I yearn for escapes from our cluttered everyday, seeking wide-open areas where I immerse myself within the ephemera of natural light, movement, and sound. My reflections on these experiences manifest themselves in dissimilar yet intertwining styles of work. Some pieces are lighthearted or whimsical; others are dark or melancholy. All explore longing, connection, beauty, and death.
I’ve Told So Many Skies About You is an exhibition of paintings, drawings, and mixed- media pieces by Iowa artist Matt Pulford. Most of the work in this show was influenced by Matt’s time working in seclusion at a rural Nebraska artist residency during the summers of 2024 and 2025. During this time, Matt became enthralled with the land, sky, and even the air itself, studied from vantage points from as high as above the trees, to as low as laying down in the shallows of the Platte River. Visitors to the exhibition will see meditative studies of grasses blowing in the wind, reflections on the constant choir of birds and insects, and investigations of distance and loss—made clear while spending time alone, far from home.
