About this work


“Betty Wood’s dazzling punch needle renderings of domestic interiors exude warmth and emotion, evoking a healing calm–like snuggling on a comfy couch, in a warm sweater, with a good book on a cool fall day in Toronto. Through her signature vibrant colours, intimate compositions, and visual perspective, Betty creates an immersive sensory experience. Time feels suspended; light dances with shadows and reflects on surfaces, elevating the ordinary into the etheric.” - Handhooked Current

Part of my ongoing series documenting queer homemaking, East End Reflections is a tender homage to urban life in Toronto.
