Winifred McNeill

“Between Air and Earth” 

Artifacts of empire from an assiduous searcher

Winifred McNeill is an expert miniaturizer. Her show contains lots of little things that make an outsized impression because they’re small.

She’s a steady hand with a shrink ray. She is so steady that her show doesn’t seem tiny at all. Instead, it’s a wide-screen treat, and a trip to a Pompeii of her own creation, crammed to the corners with discoveries, warnings, jokes, and winks at the audience.

It’s a beautiful disaster area that McNeill is entertaining us with: a still landscape marked by evidence of past turmoil, and haunted by signs of upheaval to come.
