The Lake Country Art Gallery is pleased to bring two exhibitions to the gallery this summer. Carin Covin and Heather Leier use drawing, printmaking, and installation to create two individual exhibitions.
Carin Covin received her BFA from Okanagan University College in 2003, and her MFA from UBC Okanagan in 2010. As a drawer and a painter, her current research interests are in the intersection of creative writing and visual language. She is interested in the diary form and the lyric essay and how these writing genres interweave into a contemporary painting and drawing practice.
Heather Leier is an artist and Professor soon to be based in Calgary, Alberta as she is currently on the move from Corner Brook, Newfoundland. She completed her BFA from the University of British Columbia in 2012 and received her MFA in Printmaking from the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta in 2016. Leier's work has been exhibited in many international exhibitions including The International Biennial Print Exhibit: ROC at the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Art and 2015 Guanlan International Print Biennial in Guanlan China. Solo exhibitions of her work have been presented by Martha Street Studio (Winnipeg), The Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art (Kelowna), and the Hudgens Center for Art and Learning (Duluth).
Upcoming Events:
Pulp Fiction Paper Jam/ Carin Covin: July 11-Aug 26
Without Giving Way/Heather Leier: July 11-Aug 26
Opening Reception: Wednesday, July 11th, 6-8pm
Existential Cafe: Sunday, July 15th, 2pm
