BIO

Living in a “post” colonial world, brunelle engages with her experiences of being a female Indian migrant of colour within Eastern and Western cultures. The fluidity of paint allows her to navigate undefined understandings of what it means to dwell between both socio-political and cultural spaces and places.

 

To confine her practice to labels such as postcolonialism or feminism would be to dismiss an eternity of growth, thoughts in states of flux, and multiple processes that occur in her my day to day life. 

 

Happenstance, ephemeral and provisional scraps of thoughts that inhabit her mind are just as significant to her practice as these "academic" topics. Whether it be about lingerings of phone conversations, flicking through childhood photos, peeling a mandarin or the texture of clay in between her fingers; these moments will always be critical to understanding who brunelle is, as their substance adds to her overall unique “brown female” experience.
