Mark Seabrook

Mark Seabrook is a gifted Ojibwe artist; born to both Bird Clan and Fish Clan, birds and fish feature prominently in many of his paintings.  The birds, often ravens, sit silent and bear witness or carry messages to the figures that live within his works.  He was adopted by a non-native couple and grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of Manitoulin Island.  He paints wherever he is, filling his canvases with bright blocks of acrylic colours layered later with more subtle care. His style is strongly reminiscent of Norval Morriseau, - one of his sources of inspiration.  His work often reflects a life that bridges the rural and the urban - the primitive and the urbane - Mark has a gift for depicting aspects of aboriginal culture and spirituality that extend beyond common stereotypes.  Mark will be at the National Gallery in Ottawa on Saturday 25 February from 1 to 4 pm for a workshop Off-the-Wall Art for Teens: In the Style of Norval Morrisseau as part of the Norval Morrisseau – Shaman Artist exhibition which runs until 30 April 2006.
