In Tiff, Shaina McCoy sets a faceless portrait in a sea of textured turquoise.
Translating an original painting into print form, the edition takes inspiration from family archives and photographs. Discernible only by her dark hair and sports jersey, the subject’s eschewed features create a sense of universality – encouraging the viewer to make connections with their own memories. McCoy’s thick application of oil paint and broad brushstrokes are closely replicated using innovative UV flatbed techniques, mimicking her rich painterly surfaces through layers of raised texture.
