Bio
Based out of Vancouver, BC, Carole Mathys studied at the Alberta College of Art & Design obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2009.
In her practice, she is currently looking at the mind-body relationship with an emphasis on how the physical body reacts to emotional distress.
Working primarily with oils and acrylics on canvas, her paintings are composed of multiple figures forming a tangle of expressive limbs. Partially blocked by large areas of flat colour, the figures are segmented, creating disorientation and disconnect in the pieces.
