Gillian VandenHeuvel is a 63-year-old sculpture artist based in the charming town of Goderich, Canada. Her work, rooted in emotion and transformation, is a testament to her journey of self-discovery and resilience. Gill’s art is a blend of alchemy and storytelling, turning ordinary materials and found objects into extraordinary expressions of her authentic self.

She has been known to describe herself as an “accidental artist”, that is, a woman who stumbled on her ability to make art out of found objects and realized she had been observing art in all environments for a long time before she actually began to create pieces.
