Canada’s leading contemporary outdoor and online art fair

TOAF will take place July 12 – 14, 2024.

Vera Fischer

City
Toronto

Vera Fischer uses watercolour, acrylic, jewellery-making, fabric art and collage to explore and communicate her thoughts.

Her early childhood experience as a displaced refugee in a new country, with a new language, was difficult and lonely. She needed, and found, an outlet for her emotions by actualizing her feelings through art.

These works were done during the pandemic, another time of uncertainty, when art again helped her cope and maintain her optimism.

Making art for Vera has always been the means to overcome challenges, to find comfort, and to survive difficult times. Reflected in these new works are fleeting moments frozen in time.

Vera has exhibited in solo and group shows in Canadian art galleries, and her work is featured in private collections around the world.
