CRISTI RINKLIN: Ecologies of Perception
The fugitive landscape has been a consistent motif throughout Rinklin’s work. Rather than faithful representations of the natural world, her paintings manifest as illusory composites; environments situated between geographical, virtual, and psychic space. While witnessing the natural world changing radically in real time, Rinklin beautifully constructs a visual space in which both loss and comfort […]...
Heather McGill: Flower Market
