Tania Love

Tania Love is a Toronto-based artist whose work evolves from a relationship with place, matter, and a connection with nature. She works with botanical inks and dyes, as well as casein-based paint and pigments, employing various processes including cyanotype. Her choice of materials and the materiality of her work emphasize tactility and invite reflection on cycles of fragility and growth. A Fine Arts graduate of the University of Guelph, Tania has received numerous grants, notably the Chalmers Fellowships, and residencies, and has exhibited her work both in Canada and abroad.
