Her panels are filled with scenes she has observed, like children playing ice hockey. His modern primitive works depict everyday life in the working-class neighborhoods of Montreal with humor and great sensitivity. She transforms "humble and inescapable reality" by reformulating it, adding or removing elements according to her appreciation of their contribution to the scene. A painting by Miyuki Tanobe gets to the heart of the matter: the artist wants to open the viewer's eyes so that they can better see the familiar and adjust their perception of what they think they know. |
