Vernissage: Nicole Allen | INTO NATURE’S KNOWING
WALL SPACE GALLERY is delighted to present Nicole Allen’s latest solo exhibition INTO NATURE’S KNOWING.
This latest body of works stems from Allen’s long-term contemplation of the innate intelligence within the generative and creative growth of botanical formations. Her expressionistic florals offer space to tap into the age-old wisdom of plants present in their ability to adapt to their surroundings in communication with their environment.
“There is a language in the way petals unfold in the way light filters through leaves in the fleeting moments of bloom and decay. The vibrant hues and rhythmic structures of flowers speak to something beyond the physical—a resonance that draws us closer to another realm. In these paintings I aim to capture not just the essence of nature’s beauty but the feeling of being in conversation with it.”
Born in Oakville Ontario Nicole developed an early appreciation for painting the Canadian landscape from her father. Nicole has an undergraduate degree in Art History from Queen’s University and an honours diploma in Applied Museum Studies from Algonquin College.
We look forward to welcoming you to the gallery for the vernissage on Thursday April 3 @ 5 – 7 pm.
