LALI TORMA

Canadian artist, her art is based around colour and movement, influenced by Jackson Pollock, Jean Paul Riopelle. “The final and most important act is to let everything flow freely allowing for accidents, but most importantly, for the surprise, the novelty and discovery of the “unseen” within the self. The movements are simple, looking for primitive impulses so as to dissolve the complexity, restrictiveness and ambiguity of language and figurative representation, a transcendental quest away from intellectualism. The surfaces generated are representations of a subconscious full of imagery, exposed to a multitude of patterns in my every day environment, but mostly in nature where they thrive freely. These patterns of energy in movement become live membranes remodeled by my emotions and inner thoughts.
