Musings – figurative works by Asoudeh Novin & landscapes by Marilyn Chapman... more
Musings – Asoudeh Novin & Marilyn Chapman. Asoudeh Novin, originally from Tehran, says her greatest inspiration has come from several years of travel in Europe while she was based in France in the 1990s. Experiencing art as part of life on a daily basis made a lasting impression on her, causing her to begin painting professionally. Novin's compelling figurative works show her subjects in their most contemplative state, allowing us to experience the intimacy of a quiet moment. While the subjects may appear one way to us, we can never know the true complexity within. The expansion of these "musings" is evident in the intricate movement and colour renderings of Victoria-based artist Marilyn Chapman. Her work is a culmination of the cloudscapes she watched in the Manitoba skies of her youth and the organic flow of the BC coast where she now lives. Chapman believes that life moves through us and through all that is living. Her work explores the delicate, yet complex life systems upon which we all rely.

Get on the Performance Buson opening night. Get your harnesses on for a radical ride with maximalist artist Allyson Mitchell. She'll take you there – urrrr... out there – to Daniel Barrow's opening her way. No way you'll want to miss this... it's her story in the making, on top of the emotional feelings!
