Skye is a Canadian-Asian artist, an Ecofeminist, a poet. The aim of her work is for meditative purposes and offers a safe haven from patriarchal violence. It is her hope that these sublime images of nature will evoke empowering Neofeminist strength to overcome adversity from our patriarchal society. Skye's personal struggle with domestic violence shapes her artistic purpose, aesthetic and creative process. Skye's background in art history and education feeds her curiosity in simultaneously referencing and questioning patriarchal norms.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Skye's cultural influences include the Asian landscape painting style and techniques representing her love of the geography of Canada. Her work investigates the connections between Chinese and Japanese watercolour sensibilities with poetic and spiritual subtlety. Skye harmonizes a subdued colour palette from Asian landscape painting then adds dissonance using sweeping brushstrokes creating intense movement representing the power of the Canadian landscape, while transforming the energy of abuse into a positive force for creation and beauty.
