About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. “Soft Armor” is a beautifully constructed collision of subtle and assertive gestures—its surface a complex field of quiet hues and confident marks, layered with fragments of collaged paper that seem half-erased, half-exposed. Dusty pinks, faded denim blues, and creamy neutrals are interrupted by sharper contrasts: carbon black, oxidized orange, and streaks of saturated tone that gather in the lower corner like an anchor. The use of text here is elusive—nonsensical numbers and half-formed letters drift in and out of legibility, more texture than language. These elements feel like echoes of documentation or data, stripped of function but rich in atmosphere. The interplay of painted forms and paper edges adds a tactile depth, drawing the viewer in to examine where surface and substrate blur. “Soft Armor” lives up to its name—it holds a kind of quiet protection in its layering. Repeated square-like shapes drift like shields, worn and scuffed by time and gesture. Striped elements in the bottom right pulse with rhythm, providing a dynamic counterweight to the softness above. This piece feels like memory made material: weathered, patched, and persistent, yet full of visual grace. Artist Biography: Lori Mirabelli is a Contemporary Abstract artist, born in Canada. She attended Laurentian University & graduated her BA course of Psychology with credits in Fine Art. Lori works primarily with acrylic paints on canvas. Her artworks are constructed using bold lines and diverse selection of layered mediums. She specialises in large scale paintings for homes, corporate offices, vacation properties and boutique businesses. Her abstract paintings are a reflection of her personal thoughts, emotions, struggles, and triumphs. Currently, Lori resides in Almonte, Ontario Canada where she draws inspiration from her surroundings. My abstract paintings are a riddle that I’m always trying to solve, my quest and longing for that perfect completed piece of art; a metaphor for my entire state of being. I continue to manipulate and push the boundaries of paint and mark-making, always seeking a final product that is complete."
