Espace d. – INGRESS
A new body of work is now on exhibit at Espace d by BC artist, Michela Sorrentino. Sorrentino breaks conventional painting rules by combining cold wax, oil, acrylic, graphite, ink, gouache and charcoal. Her playful, repetitive patterns, influenced by her background in graphic and textile design, draw the viewer in, while her thoughtful use of typography and mark making adds depth and patina.
