Taralee Guild

Taralee Guild is one of today’s most prolific contemporary painters. Her large-scale works have been widely acquired in private and public collections internationally. She is best known for her paintings of mid-century aluminum trailers, where reflective metal interrupts realism with distortion that stirs in the viewer a sense of formlessness and surrealist unease. Another important body of work is the ethereal cathedral forests, which serve as vessels of transformation—Rothkoesque but rooted in the vivid tradition of Canadian abstract landscape. Guild continues to experiment with new paintings that touch on themes of the figure, synesthesia, and celestial. Visual Arts >> Visual Arts Studio space
