About the Artist
Celia Lees (b. 1996) is an abstract artist based in Toronto, Canada. Her artistic journey began as a search for self-expression and a deeper connection with life and herself. Known for her love of large-scale works, Celia utilizes the physical motions of her body to guide the composition and apply her distinctive mark-making. Often incorporating found objects as unconventional painting tools, she draws inspiration from her immediate surroundings and the objects within her reach. While the composition of Celia's work is influenced by her tools and environment, her primary inspiration comes from internal emotions and human connections. Her art reflects a continuous exploration of the intangible and the ineffable — a pursuit to capture what cannot be articulated. Celia has work in private collections in Canada, United States, Switzerland, Germany, France, Austria, United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Australia, New Zealand, China, Singapore, Oman and Malaysia.
