'If you go down to the woods today, you might be in for something of a surprise, with
dark disturbances insinuating their way through Arcadia’s rolling hills and fertile
valleys. At first sight nature stretches out, bucolic, unchanging, idyllic, poetic, but
look again at Alan Rankle’s work in his show, Pastoral Collateral, and his urgent
messages soon become clear as he brings the past crashing through the now and
into the future. Our natural surroundings become secondary, subordinate,

collateral.'
