Technical mastery. Not much else describes Christina Empedocies work simply. Her drawings, ranging from precise portrayal of extinct birds to pop culture icons, are exacting in detail and complex in character. Empedocies makes fine art from ephemera, charting museum visits and b-movies with equal aplomb. This breadth of interest serves her well, for there is a true excitement in discovery just what she may share next.
Exhibition runs from April 5 through April 28, 2012.
