ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This portrait, oil on linen, was shortlisted at the 2015 BP Portrait Awards in London, UK. It was inspired by its subject, Véronique - a tiny, smiling Flemish woman with a waif-ish frame and elegant, thigh-length braid. Over several sessions drawing her, an epic personality emerged, one of tango dancing, passion and steely resolve. We spoke about how often our voices were silenced - choked - and how, in a past century somewhere, we both would have been burned as witches. The piece is fully framed with all necessary hardware.

Nova Scotia-based artist Jennifer Goddard works in oils and multi-medium drawing. She focuses primarily on the languages of the figure, drawing on 18 years studying classical dance. Her approach is either one of response or escape: the activist responds to society’s injustices and overarching themes; the escapist revels in pure colour, line and composition. A lifelong artist and largely self-taught, she studied for three summers at The Banff Centre, Alberta, and at Studio Escalier in Paris and Argenton, France (2015-16). In the interim, she studied under various teachers while pursuing a career in advertising. Her work was selected for the 2018 Circle Arts Quarterly Magazine and Manifest Gallery INDA and INPA annuals (2015-16-18). In 2014 and 2015 she was shortlisted for the BP Portrait Award in London, and was selected for the Kingston Portrait Prize exhibition in 2015.
