What's on at the Seymour Art Gallery:
- Now showing: DisCOVEry 2012 - Water
January 10th to February 5th, 2012
Water is our annual juried 'DisCOVEry' exhibition for emerging artists
Our annual discovery juried exhibition provides exposure to emerging artists. The jurors, Ross Penhall (celebrated North Shore artist), Alison Keller (independent curator and art consultant), and Sarah Cavanaugh (Seymour Art Gallery's curator) have selected 20 artists to exhibit. Each has created a piece that reflects our theme: water. The result is a fresh and eclectic show, with the artists presenting work that is as varied as their backgrounds; encompassing painting, pottery, mixed media, and photography.
Shannon Leonard was presented with the Carole Badgley Emerging Artist Award, a cash prize of $300 furnished by the SAG. Honourable mentions Anna Milton and Katherine Nielsen received prizes donated by Opus Art Supplies and Kroma Acrylics. Prize-winning artists were selected by former Seymour Art Gallery curator Carole Badgley.
Featured artists: Mary-Jean Butler, Nancy Cramer, Liz De Beer, Dorothy Doherty, Shelley Fearnley, Peter Fruhling, Jessica Gnyp, Diane Isherwood, Shannon Leonard, Anna Milton, Vern Montgomery, Katherine Nielsen, Renay Piper, Jack Prasad, Jennifer Skillen, Laura Skuse, Melanie Thompson, Elizabeth Topham, Tannis Turner, and Kelly Wharton.
