Just as the broken shards of Cubism at the beginning of the twentieth century reflected anxiety wrought of industrial change and the First World War's impending doom, the manic fractures of Scully's Towers reflect current anxieties a century later.

Scully lives and works in New York, Aix-en-Provence, and Bavaria. …
