Gail Hodgson鈥檚 exhibit, Aqueous Vita, will be on display at the Innovation Centre until Jan. 31.
Her luminous, gilded abstract collection has taken over the first floor of the Innovation Centre to welcome people as they enter through the door.
The professional artist created her unique abstract collection of 22 paintings in a fluid acrylics style to mimic cymatic images, cells from under a microscope and images of brain cells.
鈥淚 love it because I like doing just abstract but also to create and have the images just show up,鈥� said Hodgson.

Her favourite piece is Red Haired Woman, which is made up of large cells that form the outline of a woman with glowing red hair. The woman is not prominent on first glance, she reveals herself over time to the viewer.
鈥淚t鈥檚 made of a matrix of holes. It鈥檚 forming and dissolving and it鈥檚 not solid matter, it鈥檚 totally inspired by that science concept,鈥� said Hodgson.
鈥淐osmology, cymatics and quantum physics are sources of awe and inspiration for my work. My passion for painting is to express the organic, mysterious nature of life, the micro and macro perspectives, of the cosmos and sub-atomic realms,鈥� reads her artist statement.
