    "Beneath richly textured and boldly saturated surfaces, Annie Lapin has puzzled together a version of the world that presents itself more like a dream than reality. Her large-scale paintings plot out jarring spatial arrangements that distort time and skew perspective. Multiple dimensions collide on fluctuating ground, an effect that creates perceptual shifts that jolt the imagination and propel us to the edges of our minds. Various points of entry are offered via compartmentalized planes of pigment and fragmented scenes."

    - Mardee Goff in "Annie Lapin: Begining of Night"

  • "Each painting is built upon a foundation of Color Field-like pours on tinted canvas, which flow into a smorgasbord of symbols and allusions that simultaneously smash into each other accidentally, yet weave a story, nonetheless. The paintings point to the magic and absurdity of sincere attempts to convey the grandeur of landscape in the rectangle of a painting, while striving to create a sense of visual flux that parallels our experience of the world."
