Cross creates works which speak to mythic lands and are reminiscent of unearthed artefacts. Drawing on a myriad of concepts from mythology and the medieval, Cross’s works personify the landscape. Figures, eyes and solitary limbs emerge from clouds and rivers, speaking to an alternate fiction. Ambiguous narratives are formed in reoccurring scenes and motifs, creating an immersive world. Biomorphic landscapes speak to mythologies, but in Cross's works the narratives are knowingly ambiguous. Familiar and mysterious, quiet and epic, scale and irregularity in proportion puzzles the viewer.
