Galerie McKenzie Marcotte in Wakefield Qc is pleased to present an exhibition of wood fired ceramic sculpture by Raymond Warren. The pieces, based on the theme of altitude, have in common either the experience of elevation by various means such as soaring on a swing or walking on stilts or the suggestion of altitude as the figures gaze at the skies. Ceramics produced in wood fire kilns are exciting and unpredictable and these are certainly both.

"In these paintings I have sought the inspiration of water, soil, and the colors of nature to explore the roles and experiences of women from mythological times to the present. The ancient statuette of ancient goddess, known as 'Venus', is an archetypical representation of woman's life-giving role; her Iranian analogue is Anahita, goddess of the waters in Persian's myth, also seen as a source of life. In my own life, I have known no more evocative symbol of female strength than my grandmother, who passed away in September 2007. I offer this exhibition as a tribute to her memory."

Tired of oil painted landscapes and the usual suspects? Then you might find alternative art a refreshing change. Alternative Art illustrates extreme mental states, unconventional ideas, or elaborate fantasy worlds. There are several subcategories: Underground art is often a backlash against mainstream art and mainstream culture, Dark art depicts human emotional depths and fears in graphic detail, and Visionary art which is spiritually inspired.
