Christine Nobel
Swaying notes

2019

About the Item

In Christine’s work, precise grid systems give both order and fluidity. Evoking a vast plane of vision and possibility, the field of horizontal and vertical lines are a foundation for notes of colour and texture to emerge spontaneously. The gridded images offer a sense of expansion towards or into a light, yet are anchored quite specifically in the mesh of an earthly reality. The works are a profound representation of one’s relationship, through Nature, to self and cosmos. They are inspired by tapestries, the grid structure taking a direct cue from the warp and weft of woven textiles and traditional fabrics. The detail in the work gives a multi-dimensional depth that invites the viewer into an experience of the infinite. Loosely textured colours radiate like lights from within the simple landscapes. Muted shadows and ultra-pale whites give nuance to the landscape imagery, but refrain from suggesting a specific form. Like mythology, the works are presented in layers of real and imaginary forms, and the invitation is open to an individuals perception. Christine Nobel was born in Montreal, Quebec and received her Bachelor of Fine Art from Concordia University and her Masters of Fine Art from York University in Toronto, Ontario. She has had a number of exhibitions in Canada and is part of private and public collections. Outside of her art practice, she has worked in the Education departments at various galleries, including the National Gallery of Canada and the Art Gallery of Ontario. In addition, she has received Visual Artist Grants from the Ontario Arts Council.

    By Nicholas Evans
    Located in Paris, IDF
    THE OCCUPANT 2020 Paris, France A smaller work done in parallel to a complimentary piece ‘WOMBS, TOMBS, TOOLS,’ which portrays hand-painted serif typeset words ‘THE OCCUPANT.’ A ribbon of black along the base of the work hosts a line which reads: “The offices in the desert vending out futures -- if you had gotten a good one you too would want them all to know -- where our bodies have been.” The work is a commentary on the spaces we inhabit, and how they are all temporary. Paint is acrylic with the exception of the red elements, which are formed with oil paint. The painting is executed on two connected, reclaimed wood panels...
