Toni Messiter’s Art
Encountering Toni Messiter's paintings is to get caught up in a world of fact and fiction, past and present, dark and light. Using dolls as her subjects, Messiter plays with them as alter egos as she builds a dialogue around them. A deep inquiry into the personalities of her subjects, the paintings are a series of interlinked narratives that she zooms in and out of with large-scale family scenes and small close-up snapshots of individuals whose expressions are in a state of change.
