Victoria Block

Montréal, Québec

“For many years I have been interested in painting landscape in an emotional, non-specific way to evoke nostalgia and memory in viewers. I use a lot of texture, abstract forms and intense colours so that the impression is of something seen from far away through half closed eyes. Recently I’ve been working with long horizontal formats which divide foreground and background and add to the sense of abstraction.”

Victoria Block’s works are featured in numerous private and public collections in Canada, U.S.A and internationally.
