Online Viewing Room
Headline is pleased to present work by Vancouver-based artist Gillian Haigh on its online viewing room platform.
Haigh explores our understanding and perception of images. Interested in the "readability" of images and texts and the intersection of these semiotic systems, the artist creates oil on canvas works. Haigh believes that painting is a language with many co-existing dualities; a painting functions as an image and as an object, its surface is historical and modern and grounded in conceptual and material conversations. Throughout the artist's practice and continued research Haigh finds moments to reflect upon when these opposing aspects collide.
