BIOGRAPHY
Canadian artist Monika Wright moved from Toronto to Halifax in 2005 and soon began her creative journey, first in photography, and then eventually returning to painting. She enthusiastically developed a distinctive style, which lead to recognition first locally and then internationally with artworks included in collections throughout Europe, North and South America. Among her awards is the prestigious Mary Pratt Crystal Award, for the Canada 150 - 2017 SCA Elected Members Exhibition.
Monika is represented by galleries in Canada and also participates in special exhibitions worldwide. Her work has been published in Literary and Medical Journals, Fiddleheads Literary Journal, International Women Celebrate, Enroute Magazine, Exposure, Echoes of Elizabeth Bishop, CBC Sharing the View, Arts Illustrated Magazine and The Breath of Life.
Monika is an Elected Member of the Society of Canadian Artists (SCA), a member of ArtSpa, CARFAC and PCAFA.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Art has the power to be transformative, to rearrange our vision of the world and create bridges to connect us, to lead us to a greater understanding of the world we share, and those we share it with.
With organic shapes, fluid light, lines and circles, I am employing universal symbols of unity, wholeness and infinity connected by lines, representing the boundaries which separate us, but which also highlights our shared path. What we choose to see and believe will determine how we live, not just where we live. Let’s build the puzzle of our life on this planet with care and empathy.
Please visit often to see the newest images created in my studio in Nova Scotia, information about gallery exhibitions and art workshops. If you would like more information about purchasing any paintings or wearable art fashions, or if you would like to arrange an exhibition at your gallery or venue, please contact me at monika@monikawright.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
