The Cabin’’ (animation still) in Nat Martin’s show “All Is Well,’’ at Kingston Gallery, Boston, March 31-May 2

The gallery says:

The name of the show comes from one of his journal entries: ‘3:30 am, and all is well.’ …Fueled by anxious thoughts and strange dreams, the works are realized as journal-like moments with an aura of nostalgic eeriness. Old National Geographic magazine imagery and small sculptures confound the viewer’s sense of scale. Evocative processes - instant-prints through a Daylab printer and Copy system - combine with contemporary technology like gifs to create an odd time-warping that further captures the unshakable feeling of unease.’’

Mr. Martin lives in the Boston area.
