You're gonna love this artist! Been named as “one to watch” in the Montreal Mirror’s NoiseMakers of 2010, it's no secret. And she doesn't need no introduction either.
The faces that I paint are not conventional portraits. They are invented, anonymous presences that stem from my memory and daily experiences. Like ghosts, these presences appear spontaneously in my work. They shift in and out of ambiguous spaces where light and dark, the external and internal, and suggestions of urban and rural spaces are in constant conflict. I am very sensitive to the repetition, the rhythms and the speed of daily urban experience. I am interested in examining the resulting tensions as these types of movement inevitably inform my work.
