“"Ethereal and surreal, Tom Chambers's photomontages 'tell unfinished stories' about childhoods in flux, gasping ecologies, and unfinished fantasies. . . . His vibrant single final frames twist storybook notions into spectral scenes--in which rowboats are moored in fallow fields, their occupants waiting for the tides to turn, or in which girls in gowns twist up in lights, read to fawns, or offer themselves up to the sky. Animal life is ever-present: communing with the young, pushing on through damaged landscapes, and--at times, it seems--waiting to take over. . . . These are images worth puzzling through, whose lovely, otherworldly suggestions promise to bleed past their edges and into your dreams."”
