Archetypal Canadian Art

“Saturley, is known for her Canadiana-inspired acrylic paintings. Her vibrant Canadian art collection boasts archetypal landscapes, Tim Hortons cups and Canadian icons like Gord Downie and a hockey stick-holding Shania Twain. One painting depicts a Mi’kmaq performer and RCMP officer at the Vimy Ridge 100th anniversary; another portrays a Canadian veteran poised above a field of red poppies. One piece portrays a couple standing outside the Montreal Forum, posed in the style of Grant Wood’s 1930 painting American Gothic. In Saturley’s interpretation, the woman wears a hoodie and the man holds a hockey stick in place of a pitchfork. Saturley coined the hashtag #IconicCanuck for her first public gallery exhibition and the name has followed her ever since as her Canadiana alter ego. Part of her fascination with the Canadian identity comes from growing up on Vancouver Island – separated from the rest of the country by ocean and often times, a completely different weather system.”

Shortlisted for the IOC Olympic Trophy in Sport and Art  in 2014 – the painting ships out to Canadian Olympic Committee headquarters in Toronto, Canada. Following this painting came a series of paintings commenting on Canada and the great game of ice hockey. One painting depicts Lord Stanley’s Cup, with a Lawren Harris-esque feel. Snowy mountains in the background, with hockey players fighting for a puck in the foreground. A goalie sits perched near the brim, with rope dangling down to the ice, the hockey puck attached. The goal tender controlling the play from above. Hockey Gods…
