ABOUT MARIE DAWN MOLDOVAN
Marie Moldovan, Saskatchewan’s snow queen and Ontario’s part-time dandelion, is a diploma-collecting, art-slinging force of nature. A Canadian Forces medic turned master of the canvas; her life unfolds like a vibrant comic strip. With a paintbrush as her sword, she combats PTSD, emerging as the Picasso of the Prairies. Her acclaimed collection, “20 Years of Winter,” is more than art; it’s a spirited snowball fight against victim shaming, hurling hues of defiance. Recently, Marie’s brilliance was recognized when she won the People’s Choice Award at the Larder Lake, Kirkland Lake, and Virginiatown “Colours of Collaboration” Art Exhibitions.
Marie’s work and story have been featured in various news articles, highlighting her journey and impact. Her exhibition “The Colours of Collaboration” has been touring Northern Ontario, resonating with many for its powerful message and the personal triumphs it represents. This tour and her award-winning pieces have solidified her reputation as a significant figure in the Canadian art scene.
Many of the pieces in the Artists of Earth Exhibition have been curated by Marie Moldovan and are part of Shattered Psyche’s Traveling Showcase.
