"Oracle Four"

Christine Gray’s oil paintings are of models she makes from common craft materials. Each step the artist takes away from the subject through different media, the farther away from reality she takes the viewer. The dioramas are of richly-textured surreal landscapes, but the paintings also include areas that are highly-rendered, mixing it up to speak “to the dysfunction of the "Martha Stewart" system in which individuals imitate models in craft magazines. The work utilizes "failed geometry, failed architecture, and failed illusionism". “
