Claire Scherzinger’s Eckalusian Strait is part of a larger world of paintings and drawings rendering the lush landscapes of an invented exoplanet of the artist’s making. Scherzinger depicts the uncanny as a way of resisting systems of power and considering better ways to live within Western civilization. Although she uses different tools and media she approaches her practice with the internal logic of a painter. Scherzinger has a BFA in Drawing and Painting and Creative Writing from OCAD University, and an MFA from the University of Victoria. Her work has appeared in exhibitions across Canada and internationally in the US and UK. She was a purchase prize winner of the 2015 RBC Canadian Painting Competition and was a finalist for the EQ Bank’s Emerging Digital Artists Award.
