TEOREMA DRAWINGS 2009-2013
Teorema. A provisional observation. Thinking through Pasolini's film Teorema, I undertook to draw an arrival, on every large sheet of paper in my drawing shed. The arriviste, the stranger, the other, invited, made to feel at home. Then to let the consequences ensue."McPhee has been translating external and internal environments for decades. In her large-scale abstract drawings, she processes and releases the violence enacted in the land—oil spills, earthquakes, fire—as well as traumas to the body through a layering of glyph-like marks and uncontrolled washes. Her works conjure lamentation and praise simultaneously." - Cara Megan Lewis
