“You may have seen artwork by Alan M. Clark. It’s sensuous, organic, foetal, alien, exquisitely wroughtâ€

"Alan Clark's art is by turns gorgeous, eerie, ethereal, earthy, subtle, gross, organic, mechanical, romantic, and vicious. The guy can seemingly do anything in the visual field, which is why he is a major talent in the field--and why I'm such a fan of his work."
—Ellen Datlow, coeditor of The Year’s Best Horror and Fantasy
