TELEPHONE is excited to introduce BLUEPRINTS, showcasing artworks by Vancouver-based artist Christopher Leitch and presented by Allison Dawn Johnson. This spring’s edition will take place in the back gallery at Gallery Jones on Thursday, April 18th, from 5 to 8 p.m.
Comprised solely of graphite on canvas, Christopher Leitch’s artwork is a meticulous exploration of intricate organic shapes achieved through extensive line repetition. Examining a cross section of these forms unveils interconnected systems of echoing lines, forming balanced structures that dynamically interact and converge, contributing to a harmonious composition. Using a regimentation of line making parameters, the works draw attention to the internal, physical rigidity within a living form while dichotomously exhibiting fluidity and elegance within that state of growth.
Christopher Leitch is a Vancouver based painter and illustrator and holds a BFA from the Emily Carr University of Art + Design.
