< ABIGAIL MCGUANE
Abby McGuane’s multi-faceted practice negotiates a preoccupation with tactility and materiality with issues of identity and authenticity, manifested through forms that are often as bleakly humorous as they are moodily expressive.
In recent collages, she creates layered abstractions of representational images, enabling a disintegration of illusionistic space and a simultaneous exacerbation and depletion of expressionistic content. McGuane lives and works in Toronto, Canada.
