About this Event
“Like moss, my art holds time in suspension. Each painting carries the imprint of my life—work, family, joy, loss—made visible through colour and form. My hope is that viewers don’t just see the work, but feel it.”
Betty White
Immerse yourself in Betty White's collection, where art transforms into a vivid tapestry of time and nature. Her work, highlighted by dynamic brushwork and intricate textures, captures the essence of organic growth and the passage of time.
We look forward to welcoming you to Dimensions Gallery for an evening of art, inspiration, and connection.
Artist Statement
“My journey as an artist has taken me to many places and through many materials— weaving textiles in Brazil, creating woven sculptures in Montreal, and painting in Toronto. No matter the medium, what has always stayed the same is an unending curiosity and a deep connection to nature. That connection revealed itself in an unexpected way when I began noticing moss in my backyard garden. Though moss has existed on Earth for nearly 475 million years, I only recently realized how deeply it mirrors my own relationship to art. As Robin Wall Kimmerer describes, moss often doesn’t die but instead lingers in a kind of suspended animation—waiting, enduring, carrying life forward.
That image resonated with me. My art, too, feels like time made visible. Each piece carries the imprint of my life: work and family, friendship and loss, joy and sorrow. What I create is not just a record but an extension of my own feelings—undying, layered, resilient. My hope is that when someone stands before my paintings, they don’t need explanation or instruction. Instead, they simply feel. That, to me, is the true purpose of my art and of my life as an artist: to give form to emotion in a way that invites others into it—quietly, honestly, and without words."
