The Artist's Inspiration

"Red is, since the beginning of my career, THE colour that I master best and my favourite colour. I originally aimed to create a background, thinking that a bull or a lion would eventually appear. But in the end, I opted for an abstract where colour is the main subject. However, red is a colour that is difficult to distinguish on the screen because you can't see the shades either. 

Marquis's profound connection with red is vividly expressed in "Inferno." Through her artistic mastery, she creates a captivating abstract artwork where colour takes center stage, inviting viewers to experience the intensity and depth of the red hues. For the most accurate artwork appreciation, we encourage you to visit the exhibition in person if you're in the Edmonton area.

CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK

Display
Hang artwork away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and air vents. UV exposure causes fading over time — UV-protective glazing is recommended for works on paper and photography. Avoid hanging artwork above fireplaces or in bathrooms where heat and humidity fluctuate.

Cleaning
Dust frames gently with a soft, dry cloth. Never use household cleaners, water, or solvents on the artwork surface. For oil paintings, a soft-bristle brush can be used lightly to remove surface dust. Professional cleaning is recommended for valuable or delicate pieces.

Temperature & Humidity
Maintain a stable environment — ideally 18–22°C (65–72°F) with 40–55% relative humidity. Rapid changes in temperature or humidity can cause warping, cracking, or flaking. In Alberta’s dry climate, a humidifier can help protect your collection during winter months.

Handling & Moving
Always handle artwork with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. Carry framed works by the sides of the frame — never by the hanging wire. When transporting, wrap in acid-free tissue or soft blankets and keep upright. For valuable pieces, professional art handlers and custom crating are recommended.

Storage
Store artwork upright in a cool, dry, dark space. Use acid-free materials for wrapping. Never store artwork in attics, basements, or garages where temperature and humidity are uncontrolled.

Insurance
We recommend insuring your art collection. An up-to-date appraisal (every 2–3 years) ensures proper coverage. West End Gallery offers professional appraisal services — please enquire for details.
