And consider our own ‘Fantastical narratives’?

“Piri the Dreamer and Flying Coyote in the Garden (at Night)” (flashe on canvas), by Josias Figueirido, in his show “Horizons of Rest,’’ at the Zillman Art Museum at the University of Maine in Bangor, through May 2.

The museum says:

He depicts “whimsical environments with colorful, stylized trees and flora that serve as backdrops for his eccentric, cartoon-like subjects: Piri the Dreamer and his companion Flying Coyote, as well as other hybrid creatures. The exhibition brings together an assortment of recently completed large-scale paintings along with a series of small canvases. Through the artist’s quirky settings and characters, we are invited to contemplate our own fantastical narratives and meaning. Figueirido’s work with animation and digital technology offers an additional experiential opportunity for visitors. Using augmented reality viewed through a cell phone, the artist’s vibrant and playful subjects come alive to inhabit the physical space. Depending on how the viewer navigates the gallery, hybrid beasts can be seen flying about, while fictional botanicals appear in three dimensions.’’
