340 Dundas Street W., Toronto
Darlene Cole’s most recent body of work is a reflective magnification of the painting process. While creating this exhibition, the artist experienced a blurred transition from one day to the next, punctuated by a calm intensity falling always at midnight. With a shift in our universal conditions and new realities, the rhythm of the lake, walking in the garden, and dreaming of travel all became flashes of narrative for Cole. These moments are preserved within the canvases as studies of time and memory in a ruminative solo exhibition that grants solace, introspection and connectivity.
Cole's work is extensively collected across Canada and internationally. Notable public collections include: The Agnes Etherington Art Centre, Tom Thomson Art Gallery, the K.F. Preueter Collection of Canadian Art, Royal Bank of Canada, CIBC, OCAD University, Fairmont Hotels (Toronto, Montreal, Banff), and Manulife Financial.
