About Judith
Judith McKay is a modern abstract artist based in the Toronto area. Constant exploration and experimentation defines her work. She is an intuitive and high energy painter, juxtaposing unique colour combinations in swirling motion for visual impact. Her recent collage work deconstructs and rearranges canvases in layered, sculptural formations, creating that same sense of constant motion. A recurring theme in her work is the inner workings of the unconscious mind--layers of textured paint representing emotions in flux. Some aspects of her work are calm, even passive, varied with areas of flashing colours and stark shapes. These contrasts represent a blurring of things we wish we could remember with those we'd sooner forget.
Her artwork defies the usual rules of painting. It is expansive, free and in the moment. She applies paint lavishly, experimenting along the way to iterate to the desired effect. She has exhibited her work at major art fairs, including the Artist Project, as well as private galleries in the Toronto area.
