Gallery 1313 welcomes back former Toronto artist Diane White and her large, colour-saturated canvasses. She states, \u201cit\u2019s all about the water\u201d, hence the show\u2019s title : H2<\/sub>O.<\/p>\n

White\u2019s exhibit \u00a0encompasses a variety of landscape vistas with equally powerful messages. The canvasses ooze moisture in its many forms; luxuriant, pulsating forests, towering black cloud formations, multi layered mountain scapes, and boulder strewn seashores. The colour and natural forms jump off the canvas. The paintings are further empowered by stenciled text, reminding us of the fragility of the natural world in the face of the onslaught of civilization.<\/p>\n

Size plays an important role \u00a0to White and she prefers to paint large scale. Her exquisite, flowing painting titled, \u201cArbutus- Rising\u201d measures 12\u2019 X 4\u20197\u201d. Its imagery dances across the space and you can sense the majesty of the entangled arbutus groves that punctuate the west coast. The viewer is immediately transported back along some ridgeline, looking out into the ocean, encircled by an arbutus grove. White will be at the gallery both weekends to answer any questions. This exhibition hopes to further dialogue about the fragility of our earth and the artist has successfully engaged this through her paintings.<\/p>\n
