ANDRE PETTERSON | HORIZON

Andre Petterson | Horizon
3045 Granville Street, Vancouver
April 2-14, 2022

Bau-Xi Gallery presents Horizon, a new and timely series from celebrated Vancouver artist Andre Petterson. Working in his signature mixed media format integrating photography and paint, Petterson continues to explore the reality of climate change, this time focusing on the elements of rebirth and hope. Traditionally understood markers of calm - trees, flowers, fountains and charming house fronts - are digitally placed dissonantly beyond the shoreline or at the foot of frothing waves, yet continue to bloom and gleam in the sun despite the rising waters. The compositions are then dappled with brushstrokes, further suggesting  the amorphous realm of thought and "What If".
