Jason Miller's Daydreams by Josh Rubin
Jason Miller latest work is a series of mirrors, titled Daydreams, that take you away to a serene and surreal place. Acid etching and digital printing enable the application of an image in to the mirror. When you look at yourself you're transplanted in to the scene, but the room reflected behind you doesn't let you go far. Jason says both images are from New Jersey and are intended to keep the fantasy accessible, not like a post card presenting a place that seems unattainable.
Daydreams includes a forest scene and an ocean scene, each piece measures 20" x 30," and they retail for $400 at The Future Perfect

Fiona Lowry
The Australian landscape, the subject of endless tributes by artists of all media, is given an intriguing and mysteriously-sexual twist by Fiona Lowry. In her recent show at Sydney's Gallery Barry Keldoulis, called "I'm having dreams about you," Lowry has painted dream-like images of the bush. Instead of flora and fauna, she shows shadowy human figures, some engaged in overtly sexual behavior, others more...

Another compelling series is the three large hanging whale...
