Featured Project

High On Light

Mixed Media Installation at Grant MacEwan University.

This piece titled “High On Light” was showcased at Grant MacEwan University in Allard Hall and was accepted into the Art Gallery of Alberta Society’s Emerging Artists exhibit in Calgary in 2022. It also was featured in a handful of art-focused events across Edmonton. The mixed media installation was created with sheer fabric hanging from a 20-foot ceiling draping around a wood sculpture with a light projector underneath. The installation was accompanied by Aphex Twin’s “Stone In Focus” which brought a calming atmosphere that drew the viewers into the center sculpture specifically, the changing colorful light that played with the fabric above it. Isabella created the artwork to be an immersive experience centered around sustainability and bringing light and presence to recycled objects, as the artist only used recycled and second-hand objects for the installation. The select few who were invited to experience this work commented on the comfort they felt in this space as well as the “other-worldly” feel of being in the presence of this piece. One viewer stated, “I feel like I’m being transported to another dimension, I could sit and stare at the changing light for hours”.

Earth, Mother

This installation centers on nature and wellness and how interacting with nature affects our mental health. Each artwork component holds personal meaning to the artist, coming together to create a space that draws the viewer in to experience each object. It looks at wellness through each natural element, water, air, fire, and earth. How we experience wellness through the elements, and how that changes over time, as well as how to find a balance with nature in our daily lives.

Whitney Pintello is an American visual artist based in Gilroy, California who invited women and local artists from her local community to come and cover this wall in whatever they chose. The theme was to inspire women to support other women. This inspirational and vibrant piece brings so much joy to the Gilroy community.
