Wild About the City “featured a mix of scratchboard, oils, pastels, and acrylics by local artist and Humber alumna, Lisa Compton. The artworks represent the diverse flora and fauna of the Toronto area, highlighting the relationship between wildlife and urban spaces. Taking an anthropomorphized perspective, each work will present a unique voice from a subject speaking from its urbanized landscape. Experience another perspective on animals commonly thought to be dangerous or pestilential and develop a new understanding of the influence of urban expansion on local wildlife. Reflect on past assumptions, develop an appreciation for our natural neighbours, and learn how to safely cohabitate in our shared spaces.”
Lisa grew up in a small southwestern Ontario town and moved to Toronto in the mid 80's. A love of plants, gardening and design inspired her to pursue an education at Humber College North Campus, specializing in Landscape Technology and Design.
The bird seen in the painting is a mute swan. “The Mute Swan (orange beak with black knob) was brought to Canada during the 1870’s by European settlers. Considered ornamental birds, they were and still are used to decorate parks, gardens and estates.” The mute swan outside of Europe and Asia are considered an invasive species.
