An abstract artist studying at Brandon University will present her thesis work and give a talk this Friday via Zoom.

Using a variety of abstract paint applications in her exhibition, Linda Aleta Tame explores the mysterious and somewhat elusive quest for clarity and belonging. In relation to layers of life experience, she symbolically references the protective layers that eventually develop into a pearl. In her artist talk, called ‘Rim of the Visible World,’ she will be discussing her art works and sharing about her upcoming thesis show which will be presented online through the Glen P. Sutherland Gallery’s revamped website. It is now under construction, so please stay tuned for your invitation!

Tame, who is currently studying for a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in the Ishkabatens Waasa Gaa Inaabateg Department of Visual Art at BU, has previously been recognized as an exceptional student in celebration of International Women’s Day in 2014. Her work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions in the southwestern Manitoba region. Though it has now closed, she also established Artist Heart Studio & Gallery in downtown Brandon from 2018 to 2020 where regional art and creativity were showcased.

Tame is a visual artist, writer and poet from Brandon, where she lives with her husband Reg. They have five grown children, 13 grandchildren and two new great grandbabies. She paints and writes about life’s mysteries, and her simple philosophy is faith, gratitude and love.
