SUMMARY:Focus Series
DESCRIPTION:The Focus Series is an ongoing partnership between Library and Archives Canada and the National Gallery of Canada\, building on the rich collections of both institutions. \nFocus on the Métis — A103 Corridor and A103a\nA special collaboration that examines how early images of the Métis are often misidentified or not referenced at all. A careful look at details in historical art and photographs reveals that the Métis are often “hiding in plain sight.” \nPictorialism — A104a\nThe predominant aesthetic in photography throughout the first half of the twentieth century was pictorialism. \nWork is art/Art is work — A109a\nThis installation examines the various ways artists responded to the critical issues of the Depression era. \nPoints of View: Photography in the North — A111a\nDocumentary photographer Pamela Harris recorded community life in Taloyoak\, Nunavut (then Spence Bay\, NWT) for three months in 1972 and 1973 (published as Another Way of Being). Her photographs appear both casual and staged\, the resulting photographic sessions respectfully engaging two cultures and important considerations such as the agency and self-representation of Inuit.

SUMMARY:Elaf Selim at Constitution Square
DESCRIPTION: Elaf Selim is a fine artist known for luminous\, romantic paintings that explore femininity\, stillness\, and emotional refuge. A Canadian-Egyptian artist raised in Kuwait\, her work is shaped by a life lived across cultures\, landscapes\, and visual traditions. From an early age\, she was encouraged toward imagination and creative expression\, laying the foundation for a lifelong devotion to art.  \nHer painting practice is informed by training in classical oil painting and modern mixed-media techniques\, resulting in dreamlike works that balance structure with intuition. Rooted in Contemporary Romanticism\, Selim creates contemplative paintings of feminine figures\, gardens\, and delicate symbols. Her work offers a counterpoint to a culture of speed and anxiety by privileging slowness\, intimacy\, and light.  \nSelim’s imagery is immediately recognizable: feminine figures\, gardens\, and symbolic elements inhabiting a gentle\, luminous world just beyond waking. Working intuitively\, she draws from dreams\, memory\, meditation\, and nature. Her process includes layered oils\, fluid mark-making\, and hand-printed collage papers created from botanical materials gathered in her garden\, resulting in works that glow with depth and subtle texture.  \nShe creates in her home studio surrounded by gardens\, with the intention that her paintings become sanctuaries; offering collectors moments of rest\, intimacy\, and calm within a fast-paced world. Her work is represented by galleries\, exhibited in juried and curated shows\, and held in private collections\, resonating with collectors drawn to quiet beauty\, emotional presence\, and romantic stillness.

SUMMARY:Slip Terrace by Andrew Rucklidge
DESCRIPTION:April 9 to 26\, 2026 \nVernissage: Saturday April 11\, 1-4 pm \nGalerie Old Chelsea is thrilled to present a series of new paintings by Andrew Rucklidge\, an internationally recognized artist now living in Chelsea.  The exhibition captures the invisible yet deeply familiar forces that shape the earth over time as Rucklidge draws on processes such as erosion\, sedimentation\, metamorphism\, volcanic eruptions\, exposed faults\, and slipping terraces. \nAndrew Rucklidge’s practice is rooted in an exploration of the planet’s internal gestures—subtle\, powerful movements translated into paint through a deeply material and process-driven approach. Working with ancient and traditional media including egg tempera\, distemper\, watercolour\, handmade inks\, encaustic\, and sun-thickened linseed oil\, he constructs surfaces that echo the layered complexity of geological formations.

SUMMARY:Terry Brynaert - still*life
DESCRIPTION:Still*life is not a meditation on fruit bowls or porcelain vases; it proposes a dialogue between breath and silence\, between the pulse of existence and the hush of its surroundings. These paintings have emerged from the experience of living surrounded by nature—a life steeped in forests\, rivers\, and the quiet choreography of seasons. They are offered as invitations to pause\, to inhabit the stillness that nature offers without demanding\, and to recognize that stillness is never empty; it hums with life. \nFrom a distance\, the works may appear akin to realism\, as if reality itself were gently lifted from the forest floor and pinned to canvas. Yet\, as the viewer approaches\, the illusion fractures. What may have appeared serene reveals a riot of detail—brushstrokes that mimic the chaos of wind‑tossed leaves\, textures that echo the restless industry of bees buzzing about. This duality mirrors the experience of walking in the woods: the grandeur of treetops overhead\, and\, at your feet\, a single ant bearing the improbable weight of a pine needle. Stillness\, here\, is not stasis; it is a layered complexity\, a quiet teeming. \nIt is from this layered\, breathing stillness of the natural world that the studio’s own quiet emerges. In the act of painting\, thought slows to a near‑motionless drift\, settling into a trance‑like\, empty‑headed calm. The studio becomes a kind of interior forest—silent\, attentive\, stripped of urgency—where gesture arises without strain and decisions surface from a place beneath language. This meditative quiet is not separate from nature but echoes it\, becoming another form of listening. \nImmersion in nature is not an escape but a return. Silence is not absence\, but presence amplified. Each painting becomes a vessel for this paradox—where calm and vitality coexist\, where the infinite and the infinitesimal converse in colour and form. \nIn still*life\, the viewer is invited to slow down\, to look twice\, to surrender to the tension between order and disorder. These works are not so much representations; they are translations of experience\, carrying the scent of pine\, the flicker of shadow\, the pulse of unseen lives. They strive to remind that stillness is not the opposite of life—it is its most profound articulation.

SUMMARY:Trailer Trash - Randall Anderson
DESCRIPTION:Step into the world of Randall Anderson in Trailer Trash\, a provocative exploration of high and low culture through personal and social lenses. Drawing on his upbringing in trailer parks\, early work as a diesel mechanic\, and extensive studies in critical theory and formalist painting\, Anderson creates work that challenges conventional ideas of art and cultural value. His pieces blend everyday experience with formal experimentation\, offering intimate and thought-provoking reflections on the spaces we inhabit and the ways we interpret them.

SUMMARY:Dimensions - Annie-France Bowker
DESCRIPTION:In Dimensions\, Annie-France Bowker explores form\, perception\, and imagined landscapes through handwoven wall hangings. Her work navigates the space between the tangible and the abstract\, where geometry meets intuition and structure gives way to otherworldly possibility. Weaving is a deeply meditative process for Bowker\, and in its rhythm\, she often finds herself transported into unfamiliar inner spaces. Each piece begins as a sketch and evolves on the loom into a kind of puzzle\, guided by both logic and instinct. Though the process is not always exact\, there is a moment when material\, gesture\, and intention align\, and each work finds its form.

SUMMARY:Grand Nord - Valérian Mazataud
DESCRIPTION:Le photographe Valérian Mazataud a recréé\, avec des citoyens de son quartier de Montréal-Nord\, des scènes de la vie quotidienne d’autrefois. Il a fouillé des archives photographiques et des albums de famille pour ensuite\, lors d’ateliers\, reconstituer ces photos en imaginant un univers à la croisée des époques et des cultures. \nPrès d’une centaine de participants – originaires du Québec\, d’Haïti\, du Salvador ou de la Turquie – ont contribué à ce processus de co-création. Il en résulte une série de diptyques où passé et présent se répondent\, révélant autant l’évolution du Québec urbain que le regard des nouveaux arrivants sur leur société d’accueil. \nNous vous invitons en grand nombre au vernissage de l’exposition qui aura lieu le vendredi\, 10 avril 2026\, de 19 h à 21 h. L’entrée est libre et gratuite.

SUMMARY:Nicole Allen | From the ground up
DESCRIPTION:Wall Space Gallery is proud to present From the Ground Up by Ottawa artist Nicole Allen. This exhibition reflects both a physical and emotional journey toward renewal and serves as a meditation on growth\, resilience\, and the transformative power of starting anew. Through her richly layered florals and botanical imagery\, Allen explores the delicate interplay between vulnerability and strength\, much like blossoms reaching toward the light after a long winter. \nBorn in Oakville\, Ontario\, Allen developed an early appreciation for painting the Canadian landscape through her father. The artist holds an undergraduate degree in Art History from Queen’s University\, and an honours diploma in Applied Museum Studies from Algonquin College. Over the years\, Allen has consistently developed her painting and figurative skills through her studies at the Ottawa School of Art and local art groups. Since beginning to exhibit her work in 2010\, Allen has shown throughout the Ottawa region and now paints full-time from her studio as a member of the Loft Artists Collective. Her work is held in private collections across Canada\, the United States\, and Europe.

SUMMARY:Kaitlin Johnson | Falling Back into Bloom
DESCRIPTION:Wall Space Gallery is delighted to present Falling Back into Bloom by Kaitlin Johnson. In this new body of work\, Johnson revisits florals with a fresh perspective and a sense of freedom. Blending abstraction with representation\, she approaches still life as a dynamic space for experimentation\, where colour\, pattern\, and form can shift\, overlap\, and evolve. Each painting carries an air of mystery\, encouraging viewers to take their time and discover their own personal connections. At its essence\, the exhibition embodies openness\, instinctual exploration\, and the joy found in the creative process. \nBorn in Toronto\, Kaitlin Johnson currently lives and works in Oakville\, ON. Johnson works primarily in acrylics on canvas\, creating dramatic abstract paintings that inspire joy. After completing her B.A. in Visual Arts from The University of Western Ontario\, the artist obtained her art teaching degree from the University of Wollongong in NSW\, Australia. Johnson’s artistic practice focuses on teasing out the beauty and raw emotion of each inspiration\, drawing on rhythms and unique combinations of colour gathered through travel\, nature\, and anything else that catches her eye.

SUMMARY:Crystal Beshara | WILD HEART
DESCRIPTION:Wall Space Gallery is pleased to exhibit WILD HEART Tapestries: Portraits from the Forest & Garden\, featuring new works by Crystal Beshara. This collection explores an allegorical space where fine art and narrative illustration intertwine. Beshara’s compositions\, built like textiles of dense foliage and radiant light\, create a tactile sense of depth. Rooted in the elegance of Art Nouveau yet distinctly contemporary\, WILD HEART Tapestries offers a poetic meditation on the mystery of both forest and garden. \nCrystal Beshara is a Canadian contemporary realist painter and proud two-time winner of the prestigious Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation prize. A self-taught realist\, her childhood was spent drawing and observing life on a farm and the quiet\, connective world in which she lived. Even after moving to Ottawa to receive her BFA in Studio\, Crystal’s strong rural narrative continued to play a huge role in her paintings. Her style is a juxtaposition of two worlds; her love of realism collides with her post-secondary studies creating expressive and emotionally charged works of art that have been collected by corporate\, private\, and commercial clients.

SUMMARY:Nature Sous Tension
DESCRIPTION:Nature sous tension explore le fragile équilibre entre la beauté du monde naturel et les pressions silencieuses qu’il subit. À travers une série de gravures au burin – sur plexiglass\, imprimées comme des gravures sur bois\, et sur cuivre en intaglio – se dessinent des paysages d’apparence intacte\, mais subtilement altérés. \nDes virus\, des masques\, des déchets s’y glissent discrètement\, signes d’une intrusion humaine insidieuse. Ces éléments\, presque invisibles au premier regard\, rappellent que même la nature la plus préservée reste vulnérable aux blessures infligées par l’activité humaine.
