CAPTURE is Radian Gallery’s first solo show of Kent’s oil paintings. Throughout CAPTURE, Christina collects ephemeral slivers of the sublime created by the infinite permutations of light upon cityscapes and landscapes, channeling them through the brush and palette knife onto her deeply evocative canvases. Observing the shifts of light and color throughout the year, Kent’s impressionistic and atmospheric paintings highlight the bittersweet nature of fleeting moments.

About Christina Kent
A former PhD economist, Kent’s transition to painting was catalyzed by a realization that the rational economic lens was insufficient to capture the profound complexity inherent in human experience. Through her paintings, she reflects on the subtle nuances hidden in mundane moments of everyday life.
