About the Artist
Dwight Cushman is a fine artist based in Red Lodge, Montana, whose paintings and works on paper explore themes of mortality, funerary rites, and remembrance with a distinct sense of the uncanny. Drawing from his experiences as an undertaker, Cushman's art subtly evokes otherworldly atmospheres, cultivating a quiet suspense that invites contemplation of the liminal space between the tangible and intangible, life and death.
