Artist Statement:
My mixed media paintings, banners and collages draw from contemplative practises such as meditation, ikebana, Japanese floral arranging and hatha yoga. These daily practices cultivate spaciousness in thinking, encourages intuitive and decisive action. The source of contemplative arts teaching is inspired by the Dharma art teachings of the late Tibetan meditation master Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche. |
About Heather:
Heather Midori Yamada is a Sansei visual artist and teacher who works with washi, Japanese handmade papers. Heather leads contemplative workshops which combine guided meditation, hatha yoga and creative spontaneous brushwork. Living in Victoria, BC, since 2015, Yamada exhibits regularly at the Gage Gallery Artist Collective. Heather will continue to teach in Toronto at the Japanese Paper Place in 2023 and exhibit at Erga Gallery in Montreal. In summer and fall of 2022 Heather will lead workshops at MISSA on Vancouver Island and The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, respectively. Website: https://www.artyamada.com |

It is imperative that the artist reveal through the medium in which he is happiest, what he sees, thinks and feels about his surroundings.
