Colleen Heslin
In The Dark
Monte Clark is pleased to present an online viewing room for Colleen Heslin: In The Dark, part of Art Toronto 2020.

Monte Clark is pleased to present In the Dark, a solo exhibition of new works by Colleen Heslin.
Heslin’s latest works look at relationships between light and dark with full spectrum colour. Circular forms and mirroring patterns re-occur within abstract compositions, symbolically referencing generative progressions of open cycles from the micro scale of a seed to the macro space of planetary cycles. Within these open and expanding forms, reflections mirror and morph as they extend from centres to exterior edges.
Colleen Heslin graduated with an MFA from Concordia University in 2014. Her work has been shown in solo exhibitions at the Esker Foundation (Calgary), the McMichael Canadian Art Collection (Kleinburg), and the Charles H Scott Gallery (Vancouver). She has also exhibited at the Vancouver Art Gallery, Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery (Montreal), SFU Gallery, Burnaby Art Gallery, Unit/Pitt Projects, Kinderhook & Caracas (Germany), RATS Collective (Switzerland), and numerous other venues. Her work has been written on and published in Artforum, Blouin Artinfo, Canadian Art, Pyramid Power and other Canadian and international periodicals. Heslin won the RBC Painting Competition in 2013.
