Amelia Douglas Art Gallery 700 Royal Ave (PO Box 2503), New Westminster, British Columbia V3L 5B2
Food has endless possibilities for exploring form, colour and texture; it brings on memory and emotion that few other objects can evoke. In our culture it has largely transcended its role of necessity and now performs as a pertinent symbol in art and a topic for representation. For Nicola Tibbets, food has become a framework for understanding and thinking about her life as an eater and as an artist.
