artcritical.com - Rodney McMillian; Untitled (ellipses) II
Rodney McMillian's work limns absence as an unmitigated presence. His take on absence is more sensuous than cerebral. He doesn't deconstruct the idea of absence and then rebuild it as a dialectical opposition, positing that what's not seen, felt, experienced is as significant, perhaps more so, as that which is.

Untitled (ellipses) II
vielmetter.com
In his first solo exhibition at the gallery, Rodney McMillian presents a group of works that are inter-connected by an exploration of the chasm between recorded and real-time history.
Approaching this rather complex subject from various points of view - the domestic, the art historical, the bourgeois, the personal - McMillian's working method is a strategy of omissions in which eclipsed fragments and characters come to live more vividly than the recorded facts.
