While in residence at BoxoPROJECTS, Marion Landry has created a body of paintings that respond to the lighting conditions and environmental context of the site. Her approach involved embodied research, spending many hours observing and engaging with the land through daily walks, wildlife and sky observations, and studying the shifting qualities of light—particularly during dawn and dusk. Marion's project culminates in a site-responsive installation of paintings examining the interplay between light, physical space, and sensory experience. This installation invites one to engage with the concepts developed during the residency, emphasizing light as both the subject and material of painting. Please join us on December 7th to view the installation, titled 34°08′05″N, 116°18′42″W Altitude: 2,758 ft, and to meet Marion.
Artist Bio
Marion Landry is a visual artist whose practice is grounded in a phenomenological approach, focusing on embodied experiences through painting. Working in a geometrical language, her paintings capture the essence of light as it is experienced in nature, evoking a meditative and sensory response.
Her background in design and experience as a 3D Architecture Visualization Specialist inform the way she observes, organizes, and translates the pictorial plane. Landry holds a BFA (2016) and an MFA (2023) from Emily Carr University of Art + Design and has exhibited her work across Canada and internationally since 1999. Her achievements have been recognized with awards such as the University Women’s Club of Vancouver Scholarship in 2021 and 2022 and the ECU x Griffin Residency Award in 2023.
Originally from Montreal and a Francophone, Marion now lives and works on the ancestral and unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh nations in Vancouver, BC.
