Yi Mei
Monday, May 8 – Monday, July 31, 2023 Town Office Gallery – 111 Sandiford Dr. Yi Mei is a Richmond Hill artist whose work flows from realism into abstraction. Her landscapes and still life paintings often incorporate natural elements—like dried plants from her backyard and moss from nearby ponds—into the surface of the work to make distinctive textures. Her scenes take inspiration from her surroundings and community. The Town Office Gallery is programmed by Latcham Art Centre in collaboration with the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville.
