Born in Shrewsbury, England, Tracy Root arrived in Chatham-Kent just before the COVID pandemic. Impacted by the isolation she was experiencing, she quickly adapted to the area’s surroundings, instinctively painting its fields and fauna. With her trademark use of expressive symbolism, she creates images resonant with personal iconography and psychology,

This retrospective suggests the incredible commitment and production this artist has achieved throughout her career. Now living with Stage 4 cancer, “Chapters Now Through Four” reflects a life fully committed to the pursuit of painting, and an artistic trajectory that lands firmly in the present.
