About the Item
Blue white line (Abstract painting)
Oil and graphite on canvas. The artwork is not framed.
In this painting, McCagg simplified the composition by playing with layering to create a space that invites the viewer to continue making their own connections and articulations. The experience then goes beyond the painting.
McCagg is drawn to abstraction with its endless freedom. Each person can move from what is presented to other ideas or references within the individuals’ feelings at the moment or deeper within one’s life experience.
Xanda McCagg is an American abstract artist who lives and works in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City.
A classically trained painter, she has evolved into a style that abandons figuration in search of evoking the human essence.
McCagg creates her abstract compositions using a mixture of oil, graphite and collage. Although she began her practice as a figurative painter, she has abandoned the figure in search of more intimate portrayals of the human essence. Nonetheless, her work is informed and influenced by formal elements such as line and space, which provide an underlying aesthetic vocabulary for her compositions.
Integral to her process is an exploration of the small and large ways relationships can “shift.” Through the expressive layering of thin and impasto color, and delicate and rough-hewn lines, McCagg works to articulate these often-subtle evolutions. Rather than planning precisely where her composition will lead her, she intuits throughout her process the minimum amount needed to manifest the essence of what she calls “the fine line between perception and imagination of these relationships.”
