GALLERY PROFILE Linda Bain-Wood's show of recent work opened like a breath of spring, in early September! As “New Directions in Majolica”, it was well titled. Earthen- ware and majolica are a mew direction for her, as it is only since her move here from Ontario that she has been working full time inthis medium. She previously has worked in stoneware, using shino and other classic glazes, and having studied shino in Japan for a two month period in 1986. A graduate in art history from Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, she studied ceramics at the Can- berra School of Art in 1976, travelled extensively in that part of the world, and studied traditional pot making techniques in Papua New Guinea. She has taught ceramics both in Australia and in Canada. Ontario Crafts Council design awards were made to her for the years 1982-1985, and here in 1987 and 1986, she received a design award and an honorable men- tion in the Fraser Valley Guild's Annual Juried Show. Leta Cormier’s profile of Linda's work in the Vol. 8, No.2, 1985 issue of Fusion describes her work very well, and I quote a passage from It, Eventhough she's talking about stoneware with very little painting, the feeling that Linda evokes with her work is also very present in the show we have just seen here, ‘Linda makes a vanety of wheel-thrown functional POTEET”. .2.2.00000 “made tna direct and decisive manner. These are straightforward forms, full-bodied in feeling with generous lips, knobs and feet. Some pieces are altered on the wheel as part of the throwing process, others are altered after throwing. The vessels and plates altered on the wheelretain afresh, lively quality. They demonstrate sensitivity to the plastic character of the clay and an intuitive understanding of the gesture of the pot, There is a pleasant sense of scale and proportion throughout Linda's work. The bowl, handle and saucer of her teacups convey energy and decision but the overall demeanour ts one of inuttation not intimidation.” rieuaes’ fai aiancing that its 4th juried erhibttacens will take place in Trois-Riviéres from June 12 to August 26, 1990.
