'Recurring Dreams' continues Dilg’s exploration of what remains of our increasingly diminished natural landscape. The identity that the human species shares with the natural environment has become problematic and tenuous as the land itself slips further away.
-
The politics of our daily existence is examined ever more deeply while our larger existence as creatures in this time and in this place becomes less certain. Meanwhile, hope persists in the mysteries of the natural world even as that disappears.
