A Brief Overview of Personology
Myfanwy MacLeod
Curated by Cate Rimmer
Charles H. Scott Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Myfanwy MacLeod. The exhibition, entitled A Brief Overview of Personology, features all new work including prints, drawings, sculpture and a video projection.
Using characteristic humor combined with sharp wit, MacLeod approaches the world of self help books and other cultural phenomena to focus on issues around pop culture psychology. It is a subject area ideally suited to MacLeod’s work, which is both theoretically encoded and saucily flip.
