About The Artwork

This series was made by working half of it one way, and then turning it upside down. So that "Which Way is Up?" became the question. The idea. I remember what it felt like to float underwater when I was learning how to dive. Sometimes I didn't know which way was up. I kind of liked it! This series is about what it's like to question your own sense of gravity. It's the first series I made after surviving an 8.8 earthquake, quitting my job, and taking the opportunity it afforded to re-orient my life. When I was painting this series, I wanted to give you the feeling of floating, of being untethered and unmoored. I wanted you to question your own sense of gravity, the way I did when I was learning how to dive. And again, when I was blown off course and had to re-orient my life after a personal crisis. Sometimes you didn't know which way was up. And yet, I kind of liked it, that feeling of hovering and the chance to re-orient yourself, and the direction you're going in. Now, it's your turn. What will you find hidden in the layers? Where might you like to float off to? What serves as the centre of gravity in your own life? What anchors you?

Nadine Prada is lucky to be alive. She survived an 8.8 earthquake in 2010 and left her high profile job as a multi-award-winning art director to devote her life to art making. Nadine’s work captures the awe, energy and wonder of what it feels like to be fully present in a place through the five senses, and how that can lead to experiences of transcendence. **Inspired by her travels and memories of her childhood in the Caribbean, Prada works most often in watermedia and thinks of her paintings as “happenings”, events that are built up in layers and frozen in paint. **Nadine was one of 18 artists featured in the inaugural season of Landscape Artist of the Year Canada, appearing on CBC, Makeful and Cottage Life TV in Canada, and Sky TV in the UK. She has appeared in The Toronto Star, Novella Magazine’s Art Hot List, and The Creator’s Journey podcast (alongside bestselling authors like Gretchen Rubin, Jonathan Fields and former bosses Nancy Vonk & Janet Kestin). In 2012, she was named one of 50 “Artists to watch” in Toronto by piccsy.com. Her work has been internationally shown and collected since 1999.
