"The leading voice in tommy wyatt’s DITCHLAPSE expresses a relatable sense of subservience to uncertainty. Each piece in the collection is a loop in itself, asking its audience to “unplug the TV … before it consumes us whole.” In these pieces, wyatt emphasizes what it means to be consumed. How a shadow can be so devastating. How a shadow can be the “parasocial love in the netherhours.” In a collection so visceral, wyatt actualizes desire in its most digital form, describing a person being the self in self-destruction; the hidden figure in a figureless moment."
—Aldrin Badiola, editor-in-chief of Artists from Maryland
"if you believe as i do that we make art to make sense of our existence, then tommy wyatt’s is asking, what happened and why? throughout his career wyatt has played with form, voice, and perspective to keep coming back to the moments in his life that shaped him, each effort an attempt to find answers this time. in [REALLY AFRAID] wyatt builds on the breadth of his offerings to tighten the circle, get closer, and show us something new."
