One Warm Line
is rooted in
the barely-realized, sublime landscapes
of the mid-19th century.
Colour contrast
heightens awareness
of a single element:
These single warm lines of containment,
like some contemporary reenactment
of 17th century enclosures,
jealously guard a place of human presence in
the immense natural commons of the prairie.

Sharon Hogg is a visual artist working in Calgary Alberta and Lombardy Ontario, Canada. She holds a Bachelors of Fine Art and a Masters of Fine Art from the Alberta College of Art and Design.
Where humans intersect with unseen natural forces, she imagines what lies behind or beneath the surface. More than seeing, she wants to feel the backstory, the understory, the glue that holds it all together. Her work seeks to bring that underlying level of awareness closer to the visible and the touchable.
The Sublime, New Materialism and the Vorticists are influences.
