Her large-scale, intricately constructed artworks operate both as a radiant survey of painterly marks from art history and an urgent call to preserve our natural heritage.Using cuttings from decommissioned auction catalogues to recreate her original source images of sites near Pickerel River, Tap creates collages that serve as models for her larger finished paintings. Tap\u2019s collage-making intervenes in the circulation and commodification of landscape imagery and produces fragmented representations of her subjects. Tap\u2019s paintings resonate with deep admiration for the land while acknowledging the industrialization of Canada\u2019s natural spaces since colonialization, as she seeks to reconcile the role art has played in shaping that history.Monica Tap is\u00a0based in Toronto.\u00a0As an artist and Professor Emerita (University of\u00a0Guelph) Tap has influenced a new generation of painters, while honouring and\u00a0studying\u00a0the work of\u00a0previous\u00a0generations.\u00a0Her work\u00a0investigates the relationships\u00a0between painting and technology,\u00a0art history and contemporary thought, and\u00a0representations\u00a0of time and place."}
