"IN YOUR BACK YARD: MODERN AMERICAN ART SANS SENSATION"
1999-10-23 until 1999-12-11
Brooklyn Coalition of Artists in Park Slope
Brooklyn, NY, USA United States of America

Tracy Phillips' new paintings are finely detailed works expressing ambiguity of recurring personal themes. The work makes references to memories, fantasies and symbols - all of which are poignant to the artists individual experiences; however, they also hold a more universal appeal and understanding.

Significant in her work are architectural elements - elements, the artist states - of 'where we live'. Ms. Phillips also uses human characters in various states of suspension or groundedness who interact with various elements in natural or unnatural proportions, effectively describing a sense of being in, and concurrently, out of place. The larger themes expressed are ones of duplicity, contrast and connection.

She describes her work as containing multiple narratives, whereby her singular images demonstrate elements referring to, and commenting on, other works in the series; each painting is a unique, solitary fragment as part of an ultimately twisted larger whole.

This grouping of work soundly establishes Ms. Phillips as an artist who expresses disconnectedness and uncertainty within the scope of our modern, fast paced world.
