Lois Schklar's work has been shown in exhibitions throughout Canada and the United States. Her sculptures are in the Racine Art Museum, the Bronfman Collection, Claridge Investments, Idea Exchange Art Gallery and The Key Corporation.
Lois has received grants from the Toronto Arts Council, Canada Council and Ontario Arts Council. Most recently, she received Ontario Arts Council Exhibition Grants for I am Here, a 2021 exhibition at Red Head Gallery and Prototypes (Loop 2019), an exploration of sound, narrative, light and audience participation. The latter exhibition was made possible through the generous support of Canada Council’s Explore and Create Grant (2018).
Schklar’s art practice consists of an ongoing series of drawing installations utilizing found and bought urban objects as “mark making” tools. She manipulates these diverse and often disparate materials, aware of the aesthetic relationship they have with one another and by implication, the physical and psychological space they occupy. Each drawing installation builds on the ideas of preceding installations and are site specific.
Lois is a member of The Red Head Gallery (Toronto).
On today’s episode Lois talks about her creative process, installation work and how her Scottish residency inspired her work
