About the Item
In this striking piece, Calgary artist Aron Hill explores the bold architectural form of the arch. Rendered in a subdued palette of slate gray, teal, white and soft black, an archway sits in the center frame, outlined in stitches, a circular ‘heavenly’ shape glows inside it. The landscape flows in an undulating line across the base of the work.
Hill has assembled this piece using a collage method that includes acrylic ink, gluing and threading on the canvas.
“The arch as a form historically can symbolically represent a passageway between times and psychological spaces. In this particular work of art, I saw a place of burial that was uplifted via an archway.” Aron Hill
Aron Hill obtained a BFA in Interdisciplinary Studies from the Alberta College of Art and Design and an MFA from Goldsmiths College, University of London in 2006. They have exhibited across Canada and in Dubai. Hill’s work is held in private and corporate collections.
Aron Hill
Aron Hill's practice is focused on a formalist type of painting that recalls aspects of minimalism and Color-Field paintings though with references to the figure throughout. They find conceptual company in the late modernist paintings produced particularly in Canada. The choice of primary colors and a restricted medium is a conscious restraint informed by Hill’s artistic influences such as Jack Bush and William Perehudoff. The work's graphic nature relies on the sheer flatness that this medium produces.
Hill currently lives and works in Calgary, Alberta. They graduated from Alberta College of Art and Design in 2000 with a BFA in Interdisciplinary studies. Hill then completed their MFA at Goldsmiths College, University of London. Hill has exhibited internationally, and occasionally lectures and writes.
