Artist Bio: Emily Christensen McPhie grew up at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains in a home where creativity and curiosity were considered virtues. Feeling the need to decipher truth and a yearning to create, McPhie’s paintings draw on symbolic meaning and figurative expression to explore conundrums, dichotomies, and avenues for gathering wisdom. Her work conveys the duality of swimming in the deep waters of an eternal story and trudging through the messy realities of the everyday.
