Cassandria Blackmore: Khioni Diptych
Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara (MCASB) presents Cassandria Blackmore: Khioni Diptych, on view through September 29, 2024 in the museum鈥檚 window box gallery - 24 hours a day.
Blackmore鈥檚 paintings are reverse painted shattered glass. The shattering creates a vortex quality to the surface of the painting that draws the viewer in. At times one is seeing the painting through the transparent surface while later one might see the reflection of the environment around it thus obscuring the artist's physical mark. In the artist鈥檚 own words: 鈥淚t's the essence of breaking down an image and restoring it to another version of itself that intrigues me.鈥�
