Whitney McVeigh
Heads Series (Y)
McVeigh has spoken of her interest in what she calls “the internal landscape: our make-up,“seeing her ‘Heads’ as representative of “a frailty beneath the complex surface of us all.” Like the sculpted heads of Elisabeth Frink, McVeigh’s ‘Heads’ paintings allude to the tension between universal human frailty and the totemic qualities of the human image that are central to ancient and ‘primitive’ art.
