Possibilities
Category: Show/Exhibit
Event Website: https://www.facebook.com/stationhousegallery/
Venue:
Station House Gallery, Williams Lake, BC, Canada
Possibilities is exhibited at the WILLIAMS LAKE STATION HOUSE GALLERY in the main gallery.
Emerging from her fascination with the Earth in all its forms, Judith DesBrisay’s Possibilities series grew out of her South American experiences. The paintings are, however, based upon sketches made of the luxuriant growth in her Central Interior garden. The Possibilities paintings reflect Judith’s delight when she is immersed in “nature”, a joy made more intense by the imminent threats to its beauty.
The organic shapes of the Possibilites paintings, both monochromatic and vivid in hue, depict the forms, colours, and light ablaze in our lives. The paintings are a celebration of life!
Connor Kenney is exhibiting his "Woman Inside the Man" life sized sculptures in the upstairs gallery concurrent with Judith's paintings on display in the main gallery.
