Brittany Moore is an award winning emerging artist based in Kingston Ontario who paints paradoxical portraits that explore an alternate state of self.
After three years of playing professional basketball in Europe, the greatest challenge came at the conclusion of elite sport, facing quite a loss in identity. In a time of darkness, the brilliance of creation, colour and form finally shed its light. Painting shifted her purpose to a world of imagination and endless possibility.
Brittany looks to find consistencies in others that deepen our understanding of ourselves. Through art, she is interested in capturing the essence of reality, however, like reality, what we question begins with the questioning of normality. Shedding light on the incongruity of life can leave one in a seemingly impossible paradox. Brittany wishes for viewers to open their hearts to the possibility of the unknown and feel from not one, but several different perspectives.
