 ent Date End: 2012-02-10\n\nBorn in Stockholm\, Sweden\, to a Swedish fath
 er and American mother\, and a Miami resident since she was 7 after her fa
 mily moved to the area\, Christina Pettersson's The Sentinel will focus on
  Florida as a tropical locale that is almost always remaking itself throug
 h what she calls &ldquo\;the alluring mystery of faraway places.&rdquo\; S
 he writes\, &ldquo\;Ever since the first Spanish Conquistadors set foot on
  the shores of what we know as Florida\, dreams and fantasies of what migh
 t exist have driven this region's allure. To this day Florida is still bor
 rowing images and stories from whichever culture and history is most appea
 ling.&rdquo\; Inspiration from the South Pacific to the South Seas will re
 sult in a new body of thematic work from Pettersson and provide thought-pr
 ovoking images that offer fresh insights into our region.\nPettersson's dr
 awings examine the self not as one lives it\, but as one's imagination cre
 ates it. Pettersson's figures\, often herself\, are shown tied to train tr
 acks\, are buried alive\, float as if falling or flying\, walk the proverb
 ial plank\, and are visited by demons in disguise. &ldquo\;By narrating my
  own fantasies\,&rdquo\; she says\, &ldquo\;I am restoring the epic and my
 thological to life\, a sense of awe and reverence for the world.&rdquo\; T
 hese visions\, which examine fate\, inevitability and her own way of &ldqu
 o\;tricking death\,&rdquo\; have won her numerous accolades and an impress
 ive resume of exhibitions. \n \n\nStart time: 6pm to 9pm
