Colour and form are the venue for the expression of my message, as I explore the realms of my various realities: personal, professional, emotional, and everything in between.” – Claire Desjardins

Vivid bursts of pure hue and first forms produce effects reminiscent of Abstraction’s Canadian renaissance in the sixties. Along with this formal association is an idealistic innocence linked to the very real political call for protected personal freedoms and social change. Although Dejardins’ work does not take direct cause in any political arena, her work appears to celebrate not only the personal exploration of human liberty but also the right for these energies to operate boldly in commercial avenues.  Her unassuming approach to offer her works into domestic collections takes the modern Simposon’s recipe for “Abstracts at Home” and revitalizes it into a contemporary statement on the monetization of liberation aesthetics.
