Welcome to the worldly adventures of SEVEN

SEVEN is a collective of multi-disciplined artists from rural Nova Scotia. Collaboration is the foundation for creativity, where each artist responds artistically in her own medium to a selected theme. Through collective discourse, various elements combine to form a much richer body of thought - adding new and perhaps unforeseen levels of creativity and interpretation.

Rurally routed to their tidal landscape, SEVEN knows, what goes out, does come in.

Ongoing Source of Inspiration

I have recently finished my body of work that will travel to Denmark - all consisting of mixed medium paintings (acrylic, pastel and pencil on wood panels). Each piece is 3' x 3'.

It has been quite the journey so far with the initial idea of exhibiting in Denmark, export workshops, regular SEVEN meetings and of course my jaunts through the forest on a daily basis just to discover what and how I will interpret the theme EXCHANGE (UDVEKSLING in Danish). I am happy to say that I feel great about my chosen idea and hope to explore it even further as an ongoing source of inspiration for future projects.

"This body of work explores a world where creatures speak from a place of childlike honesty from the vantage point of an enchanted forest. It is the exchange of relationships between the setting and its’ inhabitants that will allow the viewer to question their own ideology."

Hope you are able to meet and see the members of SEVEN and our works on exhibit in Denmark!
