Lucy Mc Kenzie is one of the featured artists in our current exhibition Selective Memory: Artists in the Archive A process of drawing connections between disparate images and materials informs Lucy McKenzie’s Quodlibet series, a term referring to topics of theological or philosophical debate. While resembling billboards pinned with photographs, leaflets and writings around given subjects, these trompe l’oeil oil paintings play with the tension between the temporary, tangential relationship and the permanence of her chosen medium. The speculative associations that McKenzie forges from diverse source materials are forever fixed in her precisely detailed and illusionistic compositions. This work is very important and beautifully constructed. For more info on our current exhibition, our tours, workshops and events contact 021 4901844 or [email protected]
