Elaine Brewer-White is a ceramic sculptor who has lived and worked in B.C. for the past 20 years.Her work is represented by galleries across Canada and into the U.S.A. and is featured in numerous corporate and private collections. Elaine's current independent work is based on the figure, where moments of solitude or simple interactions between people celebrate the wonder of the human condition.This work seeks to further explore social behaviors and life-affirming activities through the use of humor and irony. Elaine spent 10 years performing with the Calgary and Vancouver Theatresports Leagues where her improv training helped shape her attitudes towards humor and love of the narrative. Her pieces take on a wide variety of shapes from the small individual figures, which sit off the edge of furniture to three dimensional wall murals. She is married to physical comedian Gordon White who is still working with Cirque Du Soleil, starring in their latest show 'Kooza' as the 'King.'

of Langley, B.C.Elaine has always found an unending source of material through observing her day-to-day life…"Art as therapy?" …Hmmm… - or - Elaine Brewer-White creates this work because - when she's in her studio working, her life makes sense - some vague questions of 'being' are answered - time ceases to exist - and she feels she is in some way contributing to the vast workings of the universe - since she can't afford to contribute to her RRSP… CARPE DIEM
