Meet the Artist: Shary Boyle

November 13, 2010

Join Shary Boyle for a talk in her exhibition, Shary Boyle: Flesh and Blood. A Toronto-based artist, Boyle is well-known for her bold, fantastical explorations of the figure. Highly crafted and deeply imaginative, her multi-disciplinary practice mines the history of porcelain figurines, animist mythologies and historical portraiture to create a symbolic language uniquely her own. From sculpture to projection Boyle interprets her personal observations of sexuality, relationships and human vulnerability through a darkly feminist lens.

Presented in association with the exhibition Shary Boyle: Flesh and Blood.
