Sivarulrasa Gallery in Almonte explores Canadian landscapes through art

Sivarulrasa Gallery in historic downtown Almonte is celebrating the beauty and diversity of Canadian landscapes with two new exhibitions running from April 5 to May 9, 2025.

The gallery, located at 34 Mill Street, is currently featuring Louis Thériault: Repères in Gallery III. Thériault, who was born in New Brunswick and now lives in the Outaouais region of western Quebec, hopes to brings to life the places, scenes, and events that have shaped him through art. His paintings are deeply inspired by the Maritime Provinces of his youth and the wooded landscapes of his current home.

In Gallery I, the duo exhibition Landmarks brings together works by artists Wendy Robertson and Jane Irwin. Robertson, who grew up in the Toronto area, presents a collection of oil paintings that symbolize her dynamic, contemplative relationship with the natural world. 

Complementing Robertson’s oils, Irwin introduces a new series of watercolours inspired by her recent travels through Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Ontario. Her compositions offer a fresh perspective on the diverse Canadian terrain, playing with elements of light and translucence.

Together, the exhibitions invite visitors to experience the Canadian landscape through multiple lenses and artistic approaches, from bold oils to delicate watercolours. To learn more, visit https://sivarulrasa.com/about-sivarulrasa-gallery/
