Madison Hart presents her premiere exhibition in Victoria! Her dreamy and whimsical paintings invite the viewer to travel throughout each canvas and bring their own narrative to her charming paintings.
Madison Hart began painting professionally after winning the Award of Excellence at the B.C. Festival of the Arts. Since then, her work has been featured in numerous galleries and publications across Canada.
Every time I start a new painting, I am filled with excitement. I imagine new beginnings all around me... The sweet trills of songbirds, scented flowers and trees that wrap themselves in blossoms... The gigantic mountains stretching to the sky and the Salish Sea where the Orca's play; all of this and so much more.

Tammy Hudgeon presents a much anticipated collection of new glass sculptures! Having been represented at the West End Gallery for over 15 years, Tammy's work is known and loved by collectors throughout North America.
Born on the Canadian Prairies, Tammy now lives on a small Gulf Island in the Salish Sea off British Columbia's west coast. Her unrestrained use of colour is truly inspired by nature. Her love of art, music, dance, colour and nature keeps her work joyful and full of "happy energy." Her glass celebrates her lifestyle in recurring themes: sea life, flowers, fruits and vegetables, people, music, animals and nature all captured in her signature fused glass creations.
"This body of work celebrates and honours the animals and wild spaces while being comforted by the coziness of home. I have a deep love of being immersed in nature with the colourful critters and furry animals, open air, frothy seas and starry skies. I also loving snuggling up in my bohemian home where I’m contained and protected, a home filled with colour, texture and pattern. May we stay wild, even as we inhabit our “civilized” lives.
With gratitude, Tammy xo"

Over the last decade, Barry Doupé has produced an acclaimed body of hand-drawn and computer-generated animated films. Shaped in part by experimental writing and drawing exercises, Doupé’s films are often characterized by fragmented and porous narrative structures, richly textured characters and surreal everyday situations. The artist has recently produced a series of digital drawings and animations using software developed for the Commodore Amiga, a computer that was first introduced in the mid-eighties and became the industry standard for graphics and animation. The resulting works revel in the capacities of this early technology to evoke both strange and nostalgic visual effects.
Born in Victoria in 1982, Barry Doupé holds a Bachelor of Media Arts from Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Vancouver. His films have been screened nationally and internationally at festivals and venues including the Ann Arbor Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, Anthology Film Archives (New York), Musée d’art contemporain de Lyon, Pleasure Dome (Toronto), MOCCA (Toronto), Whitechapel Gallery (London), Centre Pompidou (Paris) and Tate Modern (London). Recent exhibitions of his work have taken place at the Western Front (Vancouver) and Ghebaly Gallery (Los Angeles).
