TEMPEST: Paintings by Taryn Elizabeth Henry

May 13-May 31, 2025 in the Main gallery

Opening Reception on May 15, 5PM-7PM

About the Artist:

Taryn Elizabeth is a visual artist, mother and spiritual practitioner based in Sarnia, ON. She holds an advanced Diploma in Fine Art from Fanshawe College and a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from NSCAD University. Taryn’s work is inspired by her home along the shores of Lake Huron. 

 

Taryn’s moody Turneresque landscapes spark a visceral reaction with the landscape as common ground that holds so much memory. Her paintings capture the atmospheric skies, rough and choppy waters, and violently coloured landscapes that inspire her process.

 

 “I love to paint the beauty of a storm; the clouds remind me of the challenges we all face every day, our individuality and the power of surrendering and persevering”.

— Taryn Elizabeth Henry

"Almost Milos" by Wyn Gelenyse

Community Portraits 2023-2024 Garry and Milos: Wyn Geleynse

April 29 - May 31, 2025 in LAB 203
Opening Reception on May 15, 5PM-7PM

About the Exhibition

Originally conceived as a simple exercise in painting the portrait of a close friend and fellow artist, Geleynse saw a bigger project as more friends and acquaintances from his walk in life — from the person who prepares and serves his coffee, colleagues from the arts community, a shop keeper at his local stereo shop, co-workers at the Mission Store where Geleynse volunteers twice a week, the woman who cleans the building that houses his studio — various members of Geleynse’s community stepped forward to be caught in paint on his paper canvas. With forty-one portraits, a series was born from that simple exercise. 

​

This series of portraits is presented one or two at a time for a month, beginning at Milos Craft Beer Emporium last September to December and now at TAP Centre for Creativity. It’s an unusual method to display an exhibit but one that almost mimics the way we encounter our friends and cohorts and acquaintances in daily life, a pleasant reminder that our communal time together is slightly fragmented.
