Between the Lines

Angela Rae is a mixed-media painter who knows something about living between two worlds. After years riding the chaotic conveyor belt of Vancouver city life, she traded it for a self-designed mountainside home on the Sunshine Coast—where the pace is slower, the air is cleaner, and the yard is shared with mellow goats, a few ducks, and a flock of famously unruly chickens. The city shaped her. The country freed her. And somewhere in the tension between the two, her paintings found their voice.
Built from layered gesso, acrylic, oil stick, and graphite, Angela’s work is informed by a career designing and art directing theatrical film sets, bringing cinematic scale and atmospheric depth to raw, expressive abstraction. But it’s that push and pull between worlds—urban and rural, structured and instinctual, planned and surrendered—that runs like a current through everything she makes.
Her paintings can be found in galleries and public spaces in Vancouver and beyond, though she’s happiest when the work is out in front of people, starting conversations she didn’t plan for.
Her debut solo exhibition, Between the Lines, is a body of work that lives in exactly that in-between space—where chaos meets calm, city meets country, and structure quietly gives way to something more honest.
