About the Item

The Remains, A series of 10 works An insect approaches a crumpled paper doily to eat what remains of a party. This series explores the moment when the trimmings become debris and presumptions of human control are upended. The text-like marks on white vertical rectangles are deliberate, but indecipherable. They appear as if a poem, written in an ancient language, that honors this eternal cycle of destruction and regeneration. Winifred McNeill works in a range of materials and textural surfaces that seek to uncover poignant narratives often suggested by the physical substance itself. Building on a solid foundation of craft and traditional studio skills, she is comfortable drawing from ancient sources as with contemporary references. Working at the intersection of sculpture, ceramics, found-object assemblage, painting and drawing, Winifred exhibits in national and international venues and her work is held in private and public collections including Rutgers University, the New York Public Library; the University of Delaware Rare Books and Special Collections, and Columbia University Rare Books Department.
