SUMMARY:Andrew Beck | Into the Trees
DESCRIPTION:Wall Space Gallery is excited to present Andrew Beck’s solo exhibition Into the Trees\, a series of paintings that invites viewers deep into the northern forests where light filters through ancient canopies and the boundary between the familiar and the unknown begins to blur.\nAndrew Beck is a British born painter now living in Ottawa\, Ontario. After a career spanning illustration\, graphic design and game development\, he became a full-time artist upon emigrating to Canada in 2016. His paintings are fragments of stories that never fully resolve\, leaving a sensation of uncertainty. Beck’s work has been exhibited in galleries throughout the UK\, Germany and Canada and is held in collections worldwide.

SUMMARY:Kelly Grace | Depth of Field
DESCRIPTION:Wall Space Gallery presents Depth of Field\, a solo exhibition by Kelly Grace that considers the act of looking as a reciprocal exchange. Moving between screen\, audience\, and painted surface\, the work explores how attention circulates\, with viewing becoming a shared and shifting experience. \nKelly Grace was born in Toronto in the 70s and raised in the rural area of Stouffville\, Ontario. Growing up\, Grace was surrounded by creative influences; her paternal grandparents were traveling puppeteers in the local fair and carnival circuit in California in the 1950’s\, and her grandfather was also a clown and a painter. Both her parents had artistic and creative inclinations and encouraged her to pursue her arts education. Grace continued her arts training at Sheridan College in Oakville\, Ontario where she studied Interpretive Illustration for 3 years. Although she never pursued an illustration career\, it was at this school that she developed her style of painting with acrylics. In her final year at Sheridan College\, a project focused on ‘phobias’ prompted her to examine the “fear of clowns”. Despite the fact that she isn’t actually afraid of clowns\, the project allowed her to develop her unique style.

SUMMARY:'In Praise of Misbehaviour' by Catherine Gutsche
DESCRIPTION:New Painting Exhibition Explores the Beauty of Defying Expectation. \nA new exhibition of abstract painting explores the beauty of resisting expectations. Through layered surfaces\, assertive colour\, and gestures that challenge conventional harmony\, the works embrace disruption as a deliberate artistic strategy. Rather than seeking perfect order\, the paintings celebrate the vitality that emerges when structure is pushed\, tested\, and allowed to stand apart.

SUMMARY:'A Murmuration of Whispers' - Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:Galerie Old Chelsea is thrilled to welcome Chelsea’s Reid McLachlan with “A Murmuration of Whispers”\, a compelling new body of work that offers a rare glimpse into his creative process. McLachlan’s paintings begin not with images\, but with words. Whether fragments\, phrases\, or complex thoughts\, his visual language emerges from an incessant\, shape-shifting murmuration of internal dialogue.  “A Murmuration of Whispers” is a conspiracy of letters\, words\, and symbols that whir overhead\, swooping and diving\, mutating into ephemeral hopes\, fugitive worries\, and tenacious regrets. \nEach piece originates in a chaotic blur of whispered text—amorphous as smoke in the breeze—twisting and turning until form begins to coalesce. From this shifting terrain\, visual narratives surface: solitary figures drift through silent\, indifferent landscapes\, searching for connection. Along their journeys\, they encounter enigmatic forces—trickster ravens\, counterfeit constellations\, unreliable Madonnas\, and other meddlesome presences—that guide or mislead them in equal measure. These figures\, suspended in a timeless world of longing and regret\, seek love and redemption while navigating a delicate balance between the conscious and subconscious. \nMcLachlan’s paintings reveal deeply personal reflections on life\, love\, and loss\, while resonating with a broader\, shared humanity. \nReid McLachlan studied at the Ontario College of Art and Design\, completing his final year at the OCAD campus in Florence\, Italy. He graduated with Honours winning multiple awards in 1987. For over 35 years\, he has lived and worked full-time in Chelsea\, where he remains an active member of the Chelsea/Wakefield artistic community. His work has been featured in numerous solo exhibitions at both public and private galleries\, including Galerie Montcalm\, Art-Image\, Karsh-Masson\, l’Imagier\, the Ottawa School of Art\, Cube Gallery\, and La Petite Mort.

SUMMARY:Jane Languedoc - Solo Art Show
DESCRIPTION:Jane Languedoc was born in Ottawa\, and living on the edge of the Canadian Shield\, the landscapes that surrounded her inspired her deep love of trees\, rocks and lakes.  She moved to London\, England in 1976 and was exposed to an entirely different life. Her frequent visits to the National Gallery gave her a love of impressionism and she took many summer trips to Wales and saw a very different landscape and learned to love the ocean and cliffs of Pembrokeshire. She longed for the fresh air and cool lakes of home and returned to Canada in 1980. \nJane has learnt from local professional artists\, such as Adrian Baker\, and many online programs such as Will Kemp art and Acrylic University. She loves bright colours and uses them to portray emotions. She feels that each season has a unique mood and paints each season as it occurs. She has traveled all over the US \,Canada and Europe and been moved by the wonderful variety that nature creates with light\, weather and flora. The awe of our wonderful planet is a never ending inspiration.

SUMMARY:Bryna Cohen SPRING
DESCRIPTION:Bryna Cohen – Artist Statement \nPainting remains central to my practice\, even within the vast range of contemporary art. It is how I chose to express the beauty I see. Flora and vegetation have their own allure and vitality. Each painting begins with an emotional or sensory response to nature and evolves gradually on the canvas. Through layers of colour and careful reworking\, the image emerges over time\, allowing the original impulse to find clarity and voice. \nI use a wide tonal range of greens in my work- the colour of growth\, verdant life\, and hope. Illuminating the greens are the bright contrasting colours of flowers. The complex paths of intertwining\, stems or roots\, and foliage\, interspersed with vivid color\, create movement and growth. \nWhether flowers are contained in a vase or moving freely in space\, my goal is to capture the energy\, beauty and resilience of nature. \nAbout the Artist \nBorn in Montreal\, Bryna Polonsky Cohen has been a professional artist and art educator for more than 40 years. Having graduated from both McGill University in Arts and the University of Ottawa in Fine Arts\, Bryna has had extensive studio education. In 1970-71 she was accepted to the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design\, as well as having studied at the University of Michigan and at The American Center for Students and Artists in Paris. \nHer work is in the Collections of the City of Ottawa\, Global Affairs Canada\, and the Canada Council Art Bank\, as well as corporate and private collections including that of the late distinguished artist Mary Pratt. This is her 18th solo exhibition since 1992. As an active member of the Ottawa arts community\, Bryna was an art educator at The National Gallery of Canada\, an art instructor at the Ottawa School of Art\, and a founding member of the not-for-profit Ottawa lab ArtEngine.

SUMMARY:Bryna Cohen SPRING - Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:Bryna Cohen – Artist Statement \nPainting remains central to my practice\, even within the vast range of contemporary art. It is how I chose to express the beauty I see. Flora and vegetation have their own allure and vitality. Each painting begins with an emotional or sensory response to nature and evolves gradually on the canvas. Through layers of colour and careful reworking\, the image emerges over time\, allowing the original impulse to find clarity and voice. \nI use a wide tonal range of greens in my work- the colour of growth\, verdant life\, and hope. Illuminating the greens are the bright contrasting colours of flowers. The complex paths of intertwining\, stems or roots\, and foliage\, interspersed with vivid color\, create movement and growth. \nWhether flowers are contained in a vase or moving freely in space\, my goal is to capture the energy\, beauty and resilience of nature. \nAbout the Artist \nBorn in Montreal\, Bryna Polonsky Cohen has been a professional artist and art educator for more than 40 years. Having graduated from both McGill University in Arts and the University of Ottawa in Fine Arts\, Bryna has had extensive studio education. In 1970-71 she was accepted to the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design\, as well as having studied at the University of Michigan and at The American Center for Students and Artists in Paris. \nHer work is in the Collections of the City of Ottawa\, Global Affairs Canada\, and the Canada Council Art Bank\, as well as corporate and private collections including that of the late distinguished artist Mary Pratt. This is her 18th solo exhibition since 1992. As an active member of the Ottawa arts community\, Bryna was an art educator at The National Gallery of Canada\, an art instructor at the Ottawa School of Art\, and a founding member of the not-for-profit Ottawa lab ArtEngine.

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.

SUMMARY:État Plasma
DESCRIPTION:État Plasma renvoie à un état mystérieux et omniprésent de la matière dans l’univers\, le plasma\, qui impacte la propagation des ondes radio dans l’ionosphère terrestre. L’exposition s’inspire des mystères d’une mission secrète américaine des années 1980 à Sainte-Hedwidge-de-Roberval\, qui aurait percé un présumé trou béant dans l’ionosphère\, semant le doute et la peur. \nLes artistes\, qui ont enquêté sur le spectre électromagnétique de la petite municipalité du Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean\, déploient une installation aux accents rétrofuturistes\, combinant éléments visuels\, sculpturaux et sonores à la fois familiers\, énigmatiques et rétrofuturistes. Leur projet associe avec poésie l’imaginaire scientifique à une expérience artistique de manipulation de l’invisible.
