Holding a line in your hand

Azadeh Elmizadeh - Collen Heslin - Lyse Lemieux - Russna Kaur - Rajni Perera

“Holding a line in your hand” presents the work of five Canadian women painters from different cultural backgrounds, at different stages in their careers, and based at opposite ends of the country. Their work contains divergent methodologies, but also strong affinities. The title of the exhibition – Holding a line in your hand – borrows a phrase from the way Lyse Lemieux has described her artistic process, which, for all the artists in the exhibition, implicates the body.” - Charo Neville, Curator, KAG
