Miniature figures, some bloated and amorphous, others shapely and exquisitely figurative, float through Leona Christie’s surreal and industrial-like landscapes. In her meticulously and delicately rendered drawings, executed with fine, sharp instruments such as ball-point pens and etching needles, Christie depicts petite, animated operatic scenes staged with mutated forms, obscure machinery and erotic devices.
