Christina Pettersson: The Sentinel Opening Reception

Art and Culture Center of Hollywood, FL

Hollywood, FL 33020
Tonight is the opening reception for Christina Pettersson’s: The Sentinal. Her drawings examine the self not as one lives it, but as one’s imagination creates it. Pettersson’s figures, often herself, are shown tied to train tracks, are buried alive, float as if falling or flying, walk the proverbial plank, and are visited by demons in disguise. These visions, which examine fate, inevitability and her own way of “tricking death,†have won her numerous accolades and an impressive resume of exhibitions.
