The Art and Life of Ellen McFetridge
"This exhibition is a tribute to our mother, Ellen McFetridge – an artist, a thinker, and a gentle force in our lives. Curating her work has been a journey of truth through memory, grief, and gratitude.
We invite you to walk through this space as we have: with tenderness, curiosity, and wonder. May her art speak to you as it has always spoken to us – with beauty, depth, and love.
As her daughters, we grew up surrounded by her creativity – in her studio, in nature, and in the quiet moments she transformed into lasting beauty. After her passing in 2017, we felt called to share her work not only as a testament to her talent, but as a way to honour the values she lived by: reverence for nature,
connection to community, and the belief that art can reveal what words cannot."
This exhibition has been a journey of revelation through grief and love.
We hope you feel the warmth, the wonder, and the wisdom of the garden she left behind.
