  8. Christina McPhee

    Christina McPhee is a media and visual artist whose work is involved in the ‘deep ecology’ of topologic mark-making, abstraction, and illumination. Her work often engages site and territory, integrates scientific data into sonified, time-based and visual images, and reflects on excess and beauty at the edges of architecture and natural science. Christina McPhee was born in Los Angeles in 1954. Her family moved to Nebraska when she was seven and she grew up on the edge of a small prairie town, and taught herself drawing. A voracious reader, she was also influenced by an intense involvement in piano and classical music, and, via minimal contact with the media culture of the period, a childhood of making things. She returned to Los Angeles with a full scholarship at Scripps College, Claremont, then transferred to Kansas City Art Institute to study painting (BFA 1976 valedictorian). She worked at Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Harvard, then studied at Boston University School for the Arts. She was a student of Philip Guston during his last two years of teaching, and graduated with the MFA in painting in 1979.
