ARTIST STATEMENT:
Life in Nova Scotia enables me to focus the energy of my practice on abstract, non-objective work. The energy in the implied “infinity” (water, land, open sky) around me leads me to generate an abundant range of images – geometric, natural, textural, and full of colour. I want the viewers of my work to see the complex layering and arrangement of shapes that I thrive on in an environment that allows me to freely see. I hope people will feel the abundant joy that I get through the creation of art that is personal and, I think, universal. — Ted Lind
