In this exhibition, Christie weaves the experience of the gallery’s space with the experience of the zones of the urban environment. She uses this to interpret the feelings of belonging, confusion, alienation, and possession that we feel as humans living in a part of the world that is experiencing dynamic change.<\/p>\n

Her choice of subjects and formats is influenced by our interaction with the physicality of the paintings, ranging from the intimate to grand scale. Christie\u2019s fluency with oil paint ensures each artwork resonates deeply with the viewer.<\/p>\n

When understood as a body of work, the paintings in the exhibition transcend mere descriptions of the subject; they are the translations of relationships. The show is best described and understood not as individual works but as one painting experienced in parts:[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1714254947316{padding-bottom: 5% !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_hoverbox image=”22250″ primary_title=”THE NEIGHBOURHOOD” primary_title_font_container=”color:%23ffffff” hover_title=”” shape=”square” hover_background_color=”custom” use_custom_fonts_primary_title=”true” hover_custom_background=”rgba(173,196,100,0.5)”]<\/p>\n
