  • "Wilson’s group of six small paintings, About Time (Red), About Time (Orange), About Time (Yellow), About Time (Green), About Time (Blue), and About Time (Violet) (2024), does something similar but different. Each of its canvases invites us to zoom in, as if for a closeup, and to step back and survey the whole set, dispersing our attention across a panoramic expanse, a nearly fifteen-foot section of our architectural surroundings. Taking us in two directions simultaneously, Wilson’s singular series intensifies and widens—or deepens and broadens—our engagement, drawing us down endlessly fascinating rabbit holes while catapulting us toward a horizon-spanning scan, a big-picture overview of everything, all at once. It’s trippy. It’s dizzying. And well worth the trouble."

    - David Pagel

  • "Looking at a painting by Wilson is its own reward. But it's more than that. It's a sharpening of perception, a focusing of thinking, an extension of attention span, and an expansion of consciousness."
