Born in Quesnel, British Columbia, Crissy Arseneau is a Canadian artist who lives and works in Vancouver. Attention and contemplation, time and place, and our relationship to the natural and built environments are foundational themes in her practice. Working primarily in watercolour on hand-cut paper, hallmarks of her abstract artwork are crisp geometry and dynamic colour relationships, with isometric angles, varying line weight, subtle texture and dimension, and tonal variety puzzled together to play with perception.
She has been featured by the CBC Arts newsletter, The Jealous Curator, the Georgia Straight and Kolaj Magazine. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and art spaces in British Columbia, including the Vancouver International Airport and PiDGiN Restaurant, with pieces held in private collections in Canada, the USA, and the UK.
Select pieces are available for purchase by contacting the artist directly, as well as through Art Interiors Gallery in Toronto, Ontario.
