“Denise Dalzell’s images of everyday life are painted with a hopeful yet nostalgic cast,
capturing feelings of hopefulness and loneliness simultaneously”
Rebecca Wilson, Chief Curator, Saatchi Art.com, Spring 2020
“Existing in the realm of illustration, impressionism, and pop art, Denise Dalzell’s work
explores social interactions and the stories that develop from engaging with the world,
the immediacy of being lost in a crowd, in a public place, or in a more intimate setting”
Marjory Houbert, Singulart.com, Spring 2020
“The jury was extremely interested in your work for its universal imagery and how it
captures a moment of civic engagement. “
Camille Gillet, Frieze Magazine, Make Your Mark open call winner notification, November 2022
"Your work captures with great sharpness the beauty of everyday
life and the interpersonal relationships that we are forging at every moment. We are
very much inspired by the way paintings represent the idea of presence, awareness,
and mindfulness of the present, offering a much complex and sensible conception of
the world; Images, inspired by travel, which capture the full present, offering a conception
of the world complex and sensitive at the same time. This is why we find your work
deeply meaningful and accurate to explore this topic".
