“My latest work explores abstract figures in transition, moving from moment to moment, exploring relationships within themselves, their community and the environment. My paintings and collages are made up of overlapping personal symbols and simplified figures jumbled up together in a love of colour. Urban and rural landscapes are pieced together quilt-like with gestural lines.”

Tina Newlove, she/her, is a multi-disciplinary visual artist working primarily in oils from her Campbellville studio on the Treaty Lands of the Mississauga’s of the Credit First Nation. She has exhibited across Canada in public and commercial galleries and in artist-run centres including the Art Gallery of Hamilton, The Frederick Horsman Varley Gallery, the Roberts Gallery, Toronto, The Leighton Art Centre, Calgary and the Saint John Arts Centre.
