“I found I could say things with colors that I couldn't say in any other way - things that I had no words for" - Georgia O'Keeffe
In June 2016, DEVENIR was formed by five Francophone artists, Doris Charest, Danièle Petit, Karen Blanchet, Sabine Lecorre-Moore and Patricia Lortie. They pools ideas and skills to grow the reach of each of its members. They create artistic events that contribute to the vitality of Franco-Albertan culture.
ABONDANCE/ ABUNDANCE is series of the artists’ individual paintings created as a response to the opening quote by Georgia O'Keeffe. Even with today’s advanced technologies in communication, creating colourful images remains a powerful tool. Colour is the essence of the collective psyche. The members flow through the colour wheel using an “Abundance” of tones and nuances, to reveal intimate languages, the artists voice. The collective seeks to connect with primordial emotions locked in visual environments and life experiences. They expose those emotions through colour conversations in their paintings.
