Toronto based artist Stanzie Tooth creates captivating work exploring themes of home and finding your place in this world.
Tooth's body of work for her show Coming Home explores how place and identity are intimately connected, making the viewer question what is home. Plaster, pigment and felt are used to create illusive yet familiar compositions that remind us of our grandmother's quilts and old faded, family photos. The soft edges and colours contrast with the hard lines scraped into the plaster and crisp patterns, acting almost as moments of a remembered past.
Stanzie Tooth's work for Coming Home pushes us to considerer our relationship to home and how much of our past is remembered or constructed. We love the unique combination of these unique materials and cant wait to see her next body of work!
