Press Release

Cynthia Greig manipulates photography to expand our understanding of perception. Taking food and household objects as her subjects, Greig paints them white, outlines them in graphite and photographs them with a white background, in a white frame. One crucial detail of each object, however, is often left untouched in contrast to its blanched 2-D rendering. She investigates the truth value many assign to photographs and probes the illusory nature of representation with humor and irony.
