Elizabeth Desrosier

Raised in Almonte, Ontario and currently based in Ottawa, Elizabeth Desrosier earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Ottawa in 2021. Her practice re-imagines local neighbourhoods and passing moments in day-to-day life to explore themes of voyeurism, isolation, and belonging.

Taking inspiration from architectural landscapes, local shops and restaurants, and people both known and unknown, the artist creates a timeless familiarity in her work. Working primarily with oils, she brings a fine attention to detail while distorting perspective and lighting to emphasize the themes that she is working with.

Elizabeth Desrosier’s works have been exhibited in group exhibitions in Ontario. Her first solo exhibition Looking In will be presented by Sivarulrasa Gallery from February 8 to March 14, 2025. In 2021, she received the Paradigme Purchase Prize, University of Ottawa, and in 2024 she completed an artist residency at Chateau Orquevaux, France.
