Pamela Marie Pierce is a multidisciplinary visual artist dividing her time between Rothesay, New Brunswick and phinney cove, nova scotia, which exist on the traditional lands of the Wolastoqiyik and Mi'kmaq Peoples. SHE IS SELF-TAUGHT, MOTIVATED PRIMARILY BY PERSONAL VISIONS, INNER DIALOGUE, THE EXAMINATION OF PROPOSITIONAL ATTITUDES, AND HOW THE ORPHIC IS UBIQUITOUS IN THE CONVENTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS OF MODERN LIFE AND DAILY EXPERIENCE. HER PRACTICE OFTEN REVOLVES AROUND THE CONCEPT OF QUESTIONING — ONESELF, THE ILLUSION OF SEPARATION, OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE NATURAL WORLD, WHAT IS BUILT, WHAT IS FOUND — AND EXPLORES THEMES OF INTROVERSION AND NEURODIVERSITY, INVESTIGATING THE FORMATION OF IDENTITY THROUGH SUBJECTIVITY, AND HOW AND TO WHAT WE CONNECT. HER WORK IS SOURCED FROM BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL EXPERIENCE, OFTEN DRAWING ON THEOLOGIES, LITERATURE, fairytales, AND MYTHOLOGIES, AND HER INTERACTION WITH THE LANDSCAPE OF THE MARITIME PROVINCES HAS HELPED SHAPED THE INTUITION AND PHILOSOPHY SHE APPLIES TO HER WORK.
HER STUDIO PRACTICE FOCUSES ON CONTEMPORARY FIGURATIVE WORK, PORTRAITURE, illustration, Comic art and story-telling, AND EXPLORING THE PERSONALITIES OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE, WORKING PRIMARILY IN PEN AND INK, WATERCOLOUR, GOUACHE, AND OIL. PAMELA HAS PARTICIPATED IN SOLO AND GROUP FINE ART EXHIBITIONS ACROSS CANADA AND ABROAD, AND HER ILLUSTRATIONS AND COMICS HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED INTERNATIONALLY, APPEARING IN MULTIPLE PUBLICATIONS INCLUDING HEAVY METAL MAGAZINE AND HARBOUR: A COMPENDIUM (BEAVERBROOK ART GALLERY.) HER WORK CAN BE FOUND IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE COLLECTIONS ACROSS CANADA, THE UNITED STATES, AND EUROPE.
