Back To Artword Gallery Exhibitions 1999

Monad:
Photographs of Flowers
and Other Singular Compositions

by Wayne Parent

Part of Contact '99
the 3rd Annual Toronto Photography Festival,
May 1999
 

The first exhibition in the new Artword Gallery is a photography show by Toronto-based artist, Wayne Parent, part of the Contact '99 festival during May.

The show, titled Monad: Photographs of Flowers and Other Singular Compositions, is a body of large format photographs that examine the single object. The main works, portraits of flowers in vivid colour with a selected depth of field, achieve a starkly abstracted painterly quality.

A black and white series uses a similar formal approach towards a variety of common household objects.
