Digging a Hole with a Garden Hose- Shelby Charlesworth

My interests lie in the slippage between absence and presence; the ephemeral and fixed. I use porcelain, embroidery, printmaking, textiles, and found objects to create compositions that relate to the temporality and permanence of the body. Tracing spaces once touched, seeking comfort in an absent hand, I ground my work in personal experiences and a […]

Visual Journey – Maria Riviere

My art is a reflection about life; it encompasses concepts and processes providing a connection between the visible and invisible. I integrate the visual narrative, political and social issues, women’s vulnerability, confusion, contradictions, and a personal experience of nomadic life that can resonate with millions of people. The processes are very important in my art, […]

Wild Abandon – Bev Mazurick

Wild Abandon embodies a joyful exploration of visual expression. Departing from the delicate realm of watercolour, these renderings of wildflowers burst forth with vibrant colour and exuberant energy. Texture takes centre stage, achieved through the layering of oil and cold wax, adding depth and dimension to each piece.
