Innocence and guilt. Light and darkness. Love and hate. Tara McPherson’s paintings and posters are a tour-de-force of creative tension, art informed by the inevitable dualities encountered every day. At once heartfelt and heartbreaking, they create striking juxtapositions that help people see old things in new ways. The images utilize a simple pallet and familiar shapes, forging odd and beguiling images that catch the eye and hold the interest. McPherson focuses on people and the strange things they do, while also recalling many issues from childhood and painful maturity, and the result is images that are thought provoking and seductive. Lonely Heart is the first printed collection of her work, a deluxe hardcover edition featuring her stunning silk-screen posters, illustrations, and fine art.
