Description

Deary, Jason Jason Deary is an emerging Toronto-based artist who works primarily in painting. His most recent work explores personal history and considers how to preserve, reveal, and record memory. His compositions, comprising heavy layers of paint and collaged acrylic sheets, balance presence against absence and experiment with marks that exist in the negative. Deary's painting reflects the aesthetics of photography and print. He has mimicked the technique of silkscreen by creating acrylic sheets that can be transferred onto surfaces. Deary completed his BFA at The University of Windsor in 2010, participated in The Banff Centre Work Study program from 2011-2012, and completed his MFA at OCAD University in 2014. His work has been shown in Toronto, London, Calgary, Vancouver and New York City amongst others. Deary was a recipient of grants from the Toronto Arts Council and Ontario Arts Council. http://www.jasondeary.com
