A pencil-crayon drawing on a post-it note, attempting to emulate elements of Emily Carr’s formalist/fauvist/cubist/expressionist style: two trees on the left in the background, the brighter and smaller one occluding the darker, shaggier tree. Sunlight streams in the middle ground, and the trunk of a tree with a knot like a vertical eye peers at the viewer, seeming to point at the two trees with an outstretched branch.
Interactive component of “That Green Ideal” at the Vancouver Art Gallery - a white wall has the following prompt printed: (Largest text) Listening Land (Small text) Emily Carr cared deeply about the protection of forests and the natural world. (Larger text) On a sticky note, write a question or phrase you might address to the forest and share it on the tree. —— Nestled near the peak of the tree outline next to this prompt is a pencil-crayon drawing on a post-it note, Wanda’s contribution to the interactive component of “That Green Ideal” at the Vancouver Art Gallery where they attempt to emulate elements of Emily Carr’s formalist/fauvist/cubist/expressionist style: two trees on the left in the background, the brighter and smaller one occluding the darker, shaggier tree. Sunlight streams in the middle ground, and the trunk of a tree with a knot like a vertical eye peers at the viewer, seeming to point at the two trees with an outstretched branch.
9) Looping to 1), I loved participating in the interactive component of “The Green Ideal” at the #VancouverArtGallery, creating a pencil-coloured post-it note homage to Carr’s #formalist #cubist #fauvist #expressionist style (not sure if these are the correct terms; art historians please enlighten!)
