Vicki Smith: Larger Than Life
Bau-Xi Vancouver presents Larger Than Life, the highly anticipated solo exhibition from Toronto based artist Vicki Smith. Continuing with her years-long fascination with depicting female swimmers in intimate pool and lake settings, Smith gains inspiration from more expansive natural surroundings, placing her swimmers amongst rockier shores with more distant horizons. Smith's own meditation practice informs the energy of each image, imbuing the swimmers with a serene power and a gentle ease of thought and movement. Each image features the artist's adept skill with the brush in capturing the look and movement of water.
