Artist Statement:

Home is a place where dreams and reality coincide. We all hope for a safe space where we can hope for a secure future and comfortable present. When these things are out of reach in our ideal place in the world we may feel despair, hopelessness, loss. So many of us have difficult memories to come to terms with and although these can weigh us down or influence us in negative ways, they can also make us more resilient and capable of facing hardships stoically.

Artist Biography:

Born in Northern Ontario, attending high school in North Bay Ontario and then moving to Toronto with a few years stint in Vancouver, BC, Tiffany Monk has shown her work in Texas, Australia, Vancouver and Toronto. Over the years she has worked with acrylic paint on paper, canvas and wood panel, sculpture, rug hooking, illustration and beading. Most of her ideas are informed by her experiences working in pathology or by the patterns found in nature. With these influences she creates works often dealing with crossing over from one space to another and the changing from one state to the next. After spending many years in Toronto, she made the move to the Muskoka area where she continues to work in the medical field and spends time in her studio.
