Produktbeschreibung
The Nurturing Darkness presents the art of Carol Bajen-Gahm as she meditates on the root cellars of Newfoundland. It consists of twenty-two mixed media abstract paintings in which she uses encaustic and oil paints, seaweed prints, netting, photo transfers and other media to distill the many aspects of these dark but nurturing underground structures still extant in many Newfoundland outports. She explores their dark, confined spaces that create an indifference to time and space and generate a fear that leads to a deeper understanding. Her geologic processes of deposition and erosion (painting and scraping) create to a balance between form and color; shape and texture that engenders a deep sense of seeing. Carol and her studio are literally immersed in the wild surroundings of the North Atlantic and, as a consequence, Carol's art is steeped in the soul of Newfoundland.
Autorenporträt
Emily Deming is a freelance writer who came back to writing mid-life after an academic and professional career in earth and planetary sciences and the oil industry. While switching careers, she immigrated, started a family and suffered personal losses. She understands upheaval, does not silo science from art, almost never panics, and finds the most humour in the things she takes the most seriously. She has written for CBC, Atlantic Business Magazine, The Scope, East Coast Living, and others about people, food, drink, arts, culture and travel and covered/poked fun at City Hall with her weekly column "Notes from the Rafters" at The overcast.ca. Her work covering the Snelgrove Trial in 2017 led to an opportunity to work with Documentarian Chris Brookes from Battery Radio on a GPS based podcast App "Consent: walk the walk" which won international acclaim
