Remote Art Talks

E6 Lauren Pirie - Intricate ink drawings, large scale installations & murals and a heartfelt reflection about life as an artist in self-isolation.

Toronto-based multidisciplinary artist, art director and curator Lauren Pirie joined Tammy from Partial Gallery for a heartfelt conversation about art, artists and life in self-isolation.

Speaking from self-isolation in her 400 sq. ft. apartment, Pirie shared honest reflections on the challenges of creating while in confinement, moving her art studio into her living space, and her thoughts on how this strange period of time might impact the way we perceive and consume art in general.

Pirie also discusses how her practice has evolved from her signature delicate, intricate ink drawings to include large-scale murals and, more recently, installation. With recent large-scale installation pieces at Ontario Place’s Winter Light Exhibition and MOCA, the artist shares insights from her transition into this new medium.
