Adriele Au
Born and raised in Vancouver, Adriele Au is an emerging artist interested in exploring the definition and purpose of home. She mixes traditional art mediums, like painting, drawing, and sculpture, with nontraditional art supplies, like building materials and found objects, to evoke the themes of domesticity, memory, place, and emotions. These themes are emphasized in her use of repetitive patterns within her hybrid pieces.
About the Artwork
As part of Adriele Au’s “Puddluv” series, these hybrid pieces use mixed media and found objects to explore the elements and nostalgia related to the idea of home. Party streamers and birchwood panels provide visual cues to the feelings of acceptance and uniqueness representative of the unfettered play and celebration that come from our connection with community, family, and friends.
