Reuben Wu Searches for Unfamiliar Terrain in Surreal Landscapes

As a multi-disciplinary artist, it's easy to see how Chicago-based visual artist and music producer Reuben Wu seeks creative inspiration in the most stunning locations. Those who are familiar with his work know that surreal landscapes often do the trick for him, whether he's imagining space exploration through North American landscapes or revealing the beauty of a shrinking glacier in Peru.

He describes his visual work as driven not only by the desire to create imagery, but also by a "desire to explore new places as if they were unknown territory". His ongoing personal series An Uncommon Place definitely best embodies this idea.  .
