My paintings contain a combination of photo-realistic subject matter in dream-like, surrealistic settings. This often includes subtly allegorical interplay, both esoteric and more broadly accessible.

Biography
Victoria Wallace is a contemporary Canadian artist. Her conceptual mixture of realism and fantasy in her painting practice was shaped by the ‘trompe l’oeil’ influence mastered during her many years of mural painting. In her artwork, she skillfully creates surrealistic narratives by juxtaposing realistic subject matter within fantastical scenarios. These narratives unfold within diverse settings such as urban and natural landscapes, fairgrounds, residential interiors, and more. She derives immense joy from the subtle humor and hidden messages covertly embedded in her artworks, waiting to be "discovered" by the viewer.
For more than four decades, Victoria Wallace has displayed her paintings in a variety of venues including art galleries, exhibitions, and art festivals. Her artwork has graced spaces in Toronto, Mississauga, Peterborough, Cobourg, Haliburton, Warkworth, and has also been showcased online as well as in her personal art studio located in Peterborough. The impact of her work extends beyond these exhibitions as her pieces have found their way into private collections across Canada, the United States, and Europe.
