About the Item
Canadian artist Alice Vander Vennen returns to a familiar theme in this contemplative mixed media piece called Illumination. The shape of a canoe-like vessel provides the backdrop for an imaginative array of stones gathered from the shores of Lake Ontario, burnished copper wire, solid brass and nylon.
“Reimagining the familiar, my contemporary compositions invite connection with ancient wisdom and emergent stories through engagement with the natural world.” Alice Vander Vennen
She trained as a sculptor at Calvin College, USA and at the Ontario College of Art and Design. Alice Vander Vennen’s work is in public, private and corporate collections both here and abroad.
