Still, Sapergia, who has exhibited in New York, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, somehow manages to find studio time.
She now works four days a week in her own shop and also teaches art at the University of Northern British Columbia. I always had that undercurrent of sadness.”Īfter returning home, Sapergia apprenticed for a year at a tattoo parlor. Who gets the opportunity to touch a moose? I mean, it’s sad too. “I can remember the excitement of being able to be so close to such a massive body. She recalls finding a dead moose in the backyard as a little girl. Sapergia may come by her interest in the animal body from her father, an antique gunsmith and hunter. “I am interested in that fleshy form that lifts, falls, hovers and searches for its own likeness, a body that desires to find similarity within an image made of marks and dust.” “I see the represented body as a site of complex social negotiations, assumptions and exchanges of power,” Sapergia writes in her artist’s statement.
At times, she has intermingled human and animal, as with her female satyrs, bare-breasted women with goat-like haunches equipped with strap-on phalluses. She often suspends meticulously rendered forms ambiguously in fields of white space. Sapergia has long been interested in depicting the body - whether human or animal - as well as exploring issues of loss and power relations. “There will be a crow and a blackbird here and there around the paintings, but also stretching out over the whole gallery so that you can get a sense that this is just one little coloured window into a larger atmosphere.” But she extends her images by drawing on the gallery wall to create an immersive environment for viewers.

I thought about what is going to happen if we destroy everything and ourselves. “I started to think this moment could be after-the-fact, because there’s all this environmental doom in the news. “You get that amazing thing in Canada where you are surrounded by space,” she says. She recalls being stunned by the silence after stopping on the highway. Sapergia links this latest work to driving through the vastness of the northern landscape after living in major cities, including Vancouver, where she studied at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. You can still see the detritus of our culture, but it’s being washed away.” “The meek of the earth, the little critters, the mice and rabbits and whatnot, have taken refuge on him as though this is the last bit of space to stand on,” says Sapergia, who returned home to Prince George two years ago after completing a Master’s degree at Concordia University in Montreal. Her focal point is a 20-foot-long painting depicting a flooded city - with Prince George’s iconic roadside attraction, a giant woodsman known as Mr. Theresa Sapergia considers a post-apocalyptic world without humans in her new exhibition of large-scale painting and drawing at the Two Rivers Gallery in Prince George.
