SECOND SIGHT: RECENT WORK BY CHRISTINA MCPHEE Sept 8 - Nov 12, 2016 OPENING: September 8, 2016 @ 6-9PM Cerritos College Art Gallery is pleased to present SECOND SIGHT, a solo exhibition of new work by the conceptual painter Christina McPhee. This groundbreaking presentation assembles a significant number of McPhee’s new large-scale abstract paintings, several of her smaller gestural drawings, selections from her ongoing photographic Double Blind Studies series, and a new single-channel video collage, Microswarm Patchwalk. McPhee creates fluid, intricate line systems that mesh and contract with allusions to anime, graffiti, and the lost art of handwriting. McPhee's paintings are constructed using a laborious ink-over-oil process, whereby drawing, typically thought of as the invisible underlayment, becomes the topmost layer. Each work pulls from and combines multiple codes-including classical Mayan grammar, deep-sea taxonomies, and chemical transcriptions.
