About Lucas Allen Cook
Lucas’ work is inspired by nature, fantasy, folklore and the cosmic worlds beyond.
With his recent work Lucas has taken the viewer to dark hallucinatory landscapes and themes that explore the vastness and connectedness of the natural world around us. Ethereal cloud formations give way to monolithic peaks. Swirling nebulas writhe in the cosmic expanse. Otherworldly mountain ranges shrouded in the mist of ancient forests haunted by figures of death and spirits of darkness.
Finding solitude in his imagination and leaving the modern world behind, Lucas often conjures misanthropic visions of lush natural worlds devoid of human existence and the destruction they leave behind. Dreaming of places man has yet to set foot in and destroy for “progress.”
