LOUISE prescott

Louise Prescott is a Canadian artist from Montreal whose practice focuses on printmaking, drawing, and installation. Trained in visual arts, she has developed since the 1990s a visual language that blends technical precision with poetic research. Her work often draws inspiration from the observation of the human body, nature, and their transformations, exploring themes of memory, trace, and temporality. She employs various techniques (etching, aquatint, lithography, monotype) sometimes combining them with painterly or sculptural interventions. Exhibited widely in solo and group shows across Canada and internationally, her work is part of several public and private collections. Her approach, rooted in a dialogue between the intimate and the universal, reflects her desire to make the printed image a space for reflection and sensibility.
