Lana is part of the “Cabin Fever” series—an ongoing series of drawings that examines the character and grit that shape the dispersed individuals who choose to live and work in remote areas of Northern Canada. Born and raised in the industrial gold mining area of the deep boreal forest region of Northwestern Ontario, Globush focuses the series on the sociological aspects of isolation, self-reliance, and sustainability. In areas where climate and environment are wild and unforgiving, the works explore the ways in which people are shaped by a deeply genuine relationship to the land, and each other.

À propos de l'artiste

Jennifer Globush
Balmertown, ON

Based in Northwestern Ontario, Jennifer Globush has spent most of her life amongst landscapes of industrial gold mining within the boreal forests of Canada. Her drawings capture the details of living within a northern community of hard labour, self-sustainability, nature, and the industrial effects on the environment, its people, and an ever-changing wilderness. These compositions challenge viewers to question their understanding of Northern Canada, labour in the North and their notions of northerners in society, while the detailed mark-making that is characteristic of her work invites them to explore these subjects intimately.
