Painting and Installation
“This work follows my investigation into healing, serving as a pseudo-prayer space to mend the relationship with the body. Drawing on the body’s memory, eclecticism, and metaphysical embodiment, these relics both stand in for the body and create a space for healing to occur. From foraged items emerge shrines, spines, bound flesh. ”
Stevie Minacs is a Toronto based painter, musician, video and installation artist. Their work investigates healing, wellness, and ritual through the synthesis of multiple mediums, taking on the form of installations which serve as Neo-prayer spaces for mending and exploring what it means to exist in an ever-healing body. Stevie obtained their Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drawing and Painting from OCAD University in the Spring of 2021 and is looking forward to pursuing a career in Art Therapy.
