"Resonance of Nature: Taking Root"
2006-08-07 until 2006-09-30
Museum of Northern British Columbia
Prince Rupert, BC, CA Canada

Dutch born Kiki van der Heiden is inspired by the natural surroundings of Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands, BC, Canada) where she has lived since 2001. For this exhibit at Museum of Northern British Columbia she painted elements of trees to try and capture the lifecycle of a tree, from seeds to roots, to branches, to leaves, to rings. Large hangings of acrylic on canvas and ink on semi-translucent vellum hang in the gallery as well as smaller encaustic paintings.

Kiki van der Heiden has been a Premiere Portfolio Member at absolutearts.com since 2001. View more of van der Heiden's work at http://www.absolutearts.com/portfolios/v/voorkiki/
