​Nancy Anne McPhee

Artist Statement

McPhee’s art practice is concerned with unsettling the eye, quiet images built from subtle tonal variance and lonely voices in vast spaces. Common themes are outer space, the deep sea, and unlikely bodies. The sea and outer space are indeterminate and empty spaces.  We send out our lonely little robots to sing into the darkness. McPhee’s mediums ask something of the viewer, to reposition themselves in order for the image to become visible or to generally participate in a more active viewing process.
