New Works from Nancy Desjarlais
Nancy Desjarlais is a Cree/Métis artist residing in Edmonton. She obtained her BFA from the University of Alberta in 1994.
Her familiarity with modern art materials evolved into the creation of textural paintings in which she incorporates moulded sand and paint. Petroglyphic and myth-inspired forms emerged alongside contemplative, meditative symbols. Her images of the sky and stars reveal a cosmic-earth connection rich in spiritual energy. As well, her relationship with the earth runs deep in her work.
“I want to go beyond separateness. We are part of the earth and the universe. There is so much more than can be revealed through our senses. This is what compels and intrigues me.”
The gallery has proudly represented Nancy Desjarlais since 2018.
