Backcountry, Canoe Lake, Composition 0313 by Lesley Luce explores the Canadian landscape and the quiet rituals of time spent in Algonquin Park. Drawing on references from Canadian art history, park culture, and personal experience, the work assembles a visual archive of ideas about place, reflection, and connection to the land. From a distance, the composition appears as a bold geometric pattern. Up close, its intricate details reveal layers of symbols and references, including birch bark gathered on Canoe Lake, portage signs, wildlife imagery, and subtle nods to Tom Thomson, bringing together personal memory and Canada’s artistic history.
