The act of looking up at the vast expanse of sky over a broad and endless horizontal plain is a quintessential activity on the prairies and the inspiration for mixed media artist Bobbi Clackson-Walker’s new series of hand-coloured salt crystal monoprints STORIED SKIES.

“Looking at cloud formations can fuel the imagination and cause the eye to create whole worlds in the sky. Some cloud formations may appear as slow-moving animated fantasies or are reminiscent of a personally held memory while other formations can appear like a distant vista that entices you to travel toward them to take a closer look. Sky watching has always been an inspiring and pleasurable act of visual imagining for me and this series of hand-coloured salt crystal monoprints reveals my sensitivity to the dramas and the mysteries played out in a prairie sky.” - Bobbi Clackson-Walker
