Allison Rietta Email & Phone Number

Allison Rietta is a Toronto-based Artist and Creative Director. She has over 25 years of graphic design experience working extensively in strategy-led Visual Brand Identity. She began her design agency in 2010 after returning from a six-year period of working in Italy, and the UK as Creative Director for various agencies. Allison is also a professional artist with a studio at the historical Wychwood Barns. Her abstract paintings and collages explore mystic geometry, symbols and patterns, working predominately in watercolours and acrylics. Allison's artwork is informed by her graphic design background, and her spiritual practice of sound and meditation. Drawing on the mystic sound of singing bowls, her pieces exude melodic vibrations in which colours transcend the visual into the auditory. She sees a relationship with the healing properties of sound and geometric rhythms, and her work with the sound bowls overlaps with her geometric artwork. She blends the inner and outer character traits of spirituality with the relationship between simple shapes and forms. Allison's paintings have been exhibited in Toronto, New York and London, UK. She was longlisted twice for the Jackson’s Painting Prize UK, and most recently has been shortlisted for the Visual Art Open International Emerging Artist Award.
