SUMMARY:Shaelynn Tredenick The Weight of Quiet: Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:Shaelynn Tredenick\nThe Weight of Quiet \nFebruary 5 – 24\nVernissage: Thursday\, February 5\, 5:00 – 8:00pm \nTredenick Artist Statement The Weight of Quiet: An exploration of stillness\, tension\, and emotional restraint.\nI feel compelled to scan – drawn to preserving fleeting moments before they disappear. My work does not begin with a fixed narrative\, but with an instinct to reimagine familiar florals into contemporary compositions guided by emotion and sensation rather than story.\nWorking with both living bouquets and preserved botanicals\, I’m interested in moments of transition—when vibrancy softens\, structure loosens\, and beauty exists briefly between states. Recently\, my practice has shifted toward embracing this tension more fully\, allowing compositions to hold both calm and intensity at once\, where restraint and release exist in quiet balance. \nRather than offering a prescribed meaning\, my work creates space for reflection and emotional stillness under the surface. Built through feeling first\, each piece invites viewers to sit with instability\, softness\, and their own interpretations. \nTredenick Biography \nShaelynn Tredenick is a photo-based artist based in Ottawa\, Canada\, holding a Graduate Diploma in Photographic Arts + Production from the School of Photographic Arts: Ottawa and a formal degree in Photography from Algonquin College. A decade of competitive dance informs her work\, bringing a sense of movement\, rhythm\, and choreography into her visual practice. \nHer current practice centers on scanography of both preserved and living botanicals\, drawing inspiration from 17th-century Dutch floral paintings while engaging with contemporary digital processes and everyday arrangements. Through careful composition\, hand techniques\, and digital manipulation\, she reimagines historic floral motifs with a modern sensibility\, creating forms that exist between nature\, memory\, and transformation.
