While women artists of the early twentieth century were known for depicting interior spaces as places of privacy and domestic quietude, Margaux Williamson's interiors reveal spaces of creativity, subjectivity, and a kind of anarchic experimentation. One of Canada's leading painters, Williamson renders the 'great indoors' with a lush touch, drawing us into her world.
