'Souvenier' along with 'Synergetic Form' are graphite drawings done in the summer of 2009 as homage to my friend and mentor, the late Frank Nulf, one of Canada’s finest artists. His inky, mysterious and beautifully unsettling work inspired me as an impressionable, art student in the late 70’s when drawing as a practice was visceral, in fighting form and a movement of which Frank was a master. In those days, Frank was in the midst of creating his Box and his Bog series, 2 compelling bodies of work that suggest life, death, containment and transformation, In 2009, my drawings were created to honour and emulate Frank Nulf’s work, as part of a group show called 'Homage', held at the Cube Gallery in Ottawa. Materially, I utilized the same medium that Frank did and the haptic pleasure contained within the rendering process extended into a highly reflective and meditative experience. Thematically, the imagery of sinew, bone, fur, contained within a glowing, submerged box or ambiguously wrapped and bound reference both his Box and Bog series but also celebrates his life as a whole. The erupting flurry of synergetic threads reference the fission resulting between the past and present, and from one artist’s vision feeding another’s, all the more potent as the cycle of life has proven it’s case once again.

Originally trained in theatre design, and with a long-standing career as a film production designer, Marian is also a visual artist with an MFA in Interdisciplinary Art, Media and Design from OCADU. For many years the focus of her visual art practice has been creating evocative, large-scale oil paintings that chart nocturnal lightscapes both rural and urban, inner psychological landscapes, and dynamic weather systems. In recent years she also builds on her familiarity with and understanding of spatial responsiveness and metaphoric narrative, integrating her design and visual art practices to develop new possibilities in immersive and experiential environments. This serves her overarching interest in the overlapping perceptive and phenomenological aspects of chaos, the sublime and duration.
