Becoming 2

About Becoming 2

Just like its counterpart, Becoming I, the energy of the oblong orb in Becoming II is viscerally palpable as it rises and appears to unfold and extend outside of the canvas plane as it reaches the top. Housed in a rich cerulean blue, the mass of energy is ever-so-slightly tethered to the bottom through the suggestive grounding of the orange line. Teichert's painterly line, like the smooth, continuous oscillations of the sine wave, propagates throughout this series, connecting each painting to a harmonious whole. Sometimes it undulates through the horizon line of the painting, and at other times the sine is a glowing circular orb - the universe at a distance as though through a telescope.

Alice Teichert was born in Paris, France, in 1959. She studied music, philosophy and visual arts in Belgium and France. Since 1989, she has built an international career with over 40 solo exhibitions in Canada, France, Switzerland, Germany and Australia.
The recipient of numerous awards, in 2024, she was inducted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Canadian Arts (RCA) in recognition of her exceptional contribution to visual arts. Alice Teichert’s paintings are held in many private, corporate and public collections worldwide.
