A key member of the Group of Seven whose paintings shaped Canada’s artistic identity, Lawren S. Harris presented a singular vision of Northern Canada in his series of Arctic works, which include the canvas Baffin Island Mountains (c. 1931). The stylized mountain landscape appears stark at first glance, but it is filled with contrasts that imbue the painting with light and spiritual energy. The scene is far from flat, and neither is our take on it: this dimensionally sculpted, 99.99% pure silver version places the focus on Harris’ bold lines and symmetrical composition, using various frostings and relief heights to mimic the original contrasts and forms that inspire reverence for nature in its purest form.
See Baffin Island through an artist’s eyes. Instead of colour, varying relief heights and contrasting frostings mimic the original interplay of light and shadow.
