“…Amid legs and other recognizable body parts are undefined, aquatic-like creatures. Sometimes there are lines and curves that are two-dimensional descriptions of form and texture, but whose jumps, twists, and turns become three-dimensional when drawn with scissors. Lemieux’s work has a long history of sitting between abstraction and figuration, and here we see horizontal landscape influences as well. The stories in her poetic markings keep the eye moving, allowing viewers to make their own connections between each depiction. Her titles are just as animated and provide clues to her thought process for each piece: 1956, The Flicker’s Name was Le Black, Footless Archbishop, VANCOUVER, Vancouver….” - Akimbo review by Justina Bohach
