CATHY DALEY

Additional Images

Provenance:
Private Collection, California
Note:
Educated at the Ontario College of Art from 1973-75, Cathy Daley began exhibiting in 1980 in her hometown of Toronto where she continues to reside. Her dark oil pastel and black ink on vellum drawings explore the subject of the female form, body, and identity and their relationship with public and private spaces. The images are inherently feminine, but the manner in which Daley depicts them reminds the viewer that the beauty and ethereality associated with femininity has a dark underbelly. Despite the weight of the subject matter, her drawings remain fluid and light.
Daley’s artwork is included in public and private collections worldwide and represented in many of Canada’s most prestigious collections including the National Gallery of Canada, the Canada Council Art Bank, The Art Gallery of Ontario, the Kelowna Art Gallery and the Tom Thomson Art Gallery.
