About A World in Translation

Vancouver-based artist Fiona Ackerman’s abstract paintings are uniquely bold compositions that explore colour, texture and pattern using graffiti, stencils and brushwork.This intriguing composition in a square format has layered organic shapes in vivid colours–royal blue, yellow, red, purple and black.

“Art is the site where ideas converge—the essence of what we’re seeing, reading, hearing, and experiencing.” Fiona Ackerman
