Artist Statement:
The blurred edges of our
reality has been a discussion
for philosophers since time in

Jean Baudrillard has informed
contemporary thinking on

If you have encountered Alison
Raimes for the first time just
now, you have been taken in.
She seems to hold out the raw
immediacy of the Web. You
start to forget her real
gift—a painterly imagination
that instant communication can
never capture.
Alison puts deceptively
familiar images right ...
