For this eighth issue of Me and My Friends, English artist Ralph Dorey delves deep into his “Mountain Summit” series with a collection of black and white reproductions of his paintings, which he crops and enlarges to provide a new context for viewing their layered imagery. These full-page reproductions are accompanied by source photographs, fragments of a screenplay, and an eloquently written text on the series by the artist.
