Devon Pryce
Devon Pryce’s work incorporates painting, digital concepts, and cinematic themes. His work explores issues of anxiety, the practice of introspection, and the effects of displacement. He is interested in the mechanisms humans use to manipulate their surroundings and the influence that those measures have on the psyche. His paintings involve experimental renderings of people, as well as spaces and objects that carry intrinsic significance. They are rendered using a thin application of oil paint that allows for an atmospheric and watery quality in the painting. By a process that often crosses digital media with oil painting, the narrative subject matter exists in a balanced space between fabrication and reality.
Devon Pryce lives and works in Toronto. He holds a BFA in Drawing and Painting at OCAD Toronto. His work has recently been included in solo exhibitions at Galerie Nicolas Robert, as well as group exhibitions at Galerie Nicolas Robert, Bradley Ertaskiran, The Plumb and General Hardware Contemporary.
