Reading Between, is a true artistic collaboration between visual artist Alice Clair and writer Renée Brundell, both of whom live and work in New Westminster and share a creative space at Arrieta Art Studio.
Reading Between invites viewers into a quiet, contemplative space where language, memory, and imagination intersect. Inspired by nostalgic word games such as Mad Libs, word searches, crosswords, and I Spy books, we have created new, large-scale works specifically for this exhibition. These pieces evoke the tactile, playful feel of childhood puzzles, reimagined through a fine arts lens. Rather than demanding completion, they invite the viewer to "fill in the blanks” mentally, encouraging reflection, curiosity, and personal interpretation.
