Glass Animals - Flip
Juanita Lee Garcia is an Ottawa artist currently pursuing graduate studies at Western University. Her current project, "Only Fish Go With The Flow", is at Plaform Studios and Gallery this weekend. She learns patterns from vintage oilcloths by tracing them, then reproduces those patterns on paper, sometimes with graphite, sometimes with colour added by oil sticks. The drawings explore the idea of repetition, memory, and ritual. You can find her at: http://juanitaleegarcia.com/ and Platform at: http://platformgalleryandstudios.tumblr.com/
