KASHA McKee’s  highly sophisticated  conceptual photo practice has refined  over decades.  Evolving from an early interest in drawing and painting, then shaped by a curiosity with music, cinema, literature and fashion. Her beginnings as a photographer are  firmly rooted  in analogue,  film-based  camera methods, where she developed a fascination with, and then mastery of, the complex  mechanics of  picture-making. KASHA’s shift into the digital realm takes full advantage of its technological possibilities, with the capacity for re-envisioning material surroundings. Her adaptations of reality can mine  diverse subject matter  from fighter jets  to flamingoes,  flora or  architecture, landscape and pure pattern. KASHA creates EXTRA large-scale,  visual environments that are as luxurious as they are overwhelming with their sheer size and complexity inviting us to enter the work. More participant than spectator, the viewer experiences a distinctive interplay of color and movement, as they encounter a cast of characters inanimate and otherwise, which populate KASHA’S photographic planes. Whether it’s explorations of world famous landmarks or interpreting themes for special commissions,  KASHA is conquering the conceptual photo practice as an extreme realist maintaining her authentic self in an art business overwhelmed with distorted opinions and inflated markets. Being an ARTIST for KASHA includes being an independent force representing herself. She is fiercely competitive and tenacious, intent on one thing, maintaining INTEGRITY in her pursuit of ART.
