Residing beside Lake Ontario, Burlington Artist Briar Emond draws unceasing inspiration from the ever-transforming waters. In her latest series, “Space, Silence, Solitude,” she skillfully encapsulates the shifting moods evoked by the lake throughout the seasons. From the majestic silhouette of the Niagara Escarpment on sunlit days to the poetic dance of storm clouds on darker ones, the lake is a boundless wellspring of diverse expressions. Emond’s collection invites viewers to delve into the evolving connection between the observer and the lake, underscoring the imperative of its preservation.
