EN My works investigate the space of abstraction to convey a visceral experience of another way of knowing in which the interplay of marks, colour and blur becomes an experience that may not be easily decipherable. Not giving a language in the vocabulary can open up possibilities and question the functioning of language. As we live in a time of uncertainty and complicated times to understand our reality, painting is a way to reconstruct all forms of historical visual language and lead us to know who we are, what we are and how we are.Christina Sucgang was born in Manila (Philippines) and moved to Southern California in 1992. Since 2007 she has lived and worked in Brooklyn, New York. She received her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and her BFA from the School of Visual Arts in 2009.
