Lyse Lemieux: Trespassers / Intrus

LYSE LEMIEUX: TRESPASSERS / INTRUS is the companion publication to the Burnaby Art Gallery exhibition (to Sep 19). Show and book feature a selection of the interdisciplinary artist’s two- and three-dimensional works from the past 30 years. Originally known as a sculptor and installation artist, Lemieux has been acclaimed recently for redefining the practice of drawing through unexpected materials and processes. The focus here is on her explorations of childhood memories and the emotionally charged human body. Beautifully designed by Stacey Noyes, with poetry by Otoniya J. Okot Bitek and essays by Jennifer Cane and Robin Laurence
