Denise Tierney

Denise Tierney works across a wide range of media to produce two-dimensional and sculptural artwork.  Her artistic practice is fueled by a curiosity of human behaviour and the experiences of exchange.  Denise focuses on memory, history (personal and collective), ritual, tradition, the transience of life and how experiences shape our identity.  She aims to make the subject matter relevant today through the use of contemporary palettes, compositions or environments.  Denise holds a BA (Visual Art major) and a Diploma in Visual Art from Vancouver Island University, Nanaimo, BC.
