About the Item
Vancouver-based artist Fiona Ackerman has exhibited her masterfully rendered paintings internationally. Known for her refined sense of colour, and her imaginative and dynamic form, Around the Corner is one of a series of abstract paintings called Paper Trail she created in 2024. Ackerman is playing with blurring the line between abstraction and realism in this piece, a conversation she has broached in much of her work. In one corner, the image appears paper-like as if a page is being turned. The overall effect of this image invites the viewer in. The colour palette is a striking wash of deep red that pops against the passages of white and soft gray.
“This painting plays with antagonism between loose gestural painting, hard-edge painting, colour, monochrome, foreground and background. Working on this series, I became aware of the short walk back and forth from home to the studio, a repetitive journey that is somehow never the same. With each trip to the studio, painting is greeted with a fresh start.” Fiona Ackerman
Born in Ottawa in 1978, Fiona Ackerman studied painting at Concordia University and completed a BFA at the Emily Carr University of Art and Design in 2002. She has held more than 20 solo exhibitions internationally. Fiona’s studio practice extends beyond painting to include several large-scale murals, videos and other public art projects. In her free time, she writes and records music and videos, often working with other musicians. She currently lives and works in Vancouver BC.

Fiona Ackerman
Originally from Montreal, Fiona Ackerman studied paintings at Concordia University and completing a BFA at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in 2002. She currently lives and works in Vancouver BC and exhibits her work internationally (Canada, Europe, USA, UK and Asia). Fiona’s studio practice extends beyond painting to include several large-scale murals, video projections and other public art projects. In her free time, she writes and records music and videos, often working collaboratively with other musicians. Rooted in abstraction, I want to push my work in divergent directions, to surprise myself, and keep the possibilities for my painting wide open. Working in series, I develop a stylistic language specific to the mood or conceptual objectives I'm working on. Over the years, my work has seen many different stylistic evolutions. I see my arc of work much like that of an author. Each series is like a new book, different in tone, style, and story. But they are all part of a larger archive, and each a meaningful piece of the whole. - Ackerman
