"There is so much seismic activity at work in Ryan Sullivan’s multilayered paintings that, on first glance, one could mistake the canvases for zoomed-in satellite shots of lunar terrains or geographical fault lines recorded by heat sensors. Any closer examination, however, reveals the work of expertly controlled chaos—or rather, neither control nor chaos but the gulf in between where all the material discoveries happen."
-Christopher Bollen, "Ryan Sullivan," Interview Magazine, 12 December 2013 (online)
