“Murray’s paintings are only superficially about painting as painting;
what they reveal is the soul of an artist seeking for explanations in a world
without fixed meanings. They force the vision from one boundary to another and
reify a mood of otherness, of profound searching for ultimate meanings. Their
fracture points to a landscape of memory haunted by demons only partially contained
– the act of painting itself being the weapon to control them.”
