Chronologically, Safdie used found natural objects in her sculpture installations at the beginning of her career in the 1970s, and then, in the early 1980s, she began painting with oil and earth materials. Scratching away and layering are among many physical techniques that characterize her process of painting. Later in her career, she was drawn to photography to capture inherent truths revolving around her themes. In 2001, Safdie began experimenting with video works that included or excluded sound, which demonstrated her ideas in a fluid, non-static way.
Sylvia Safdie (born 1942) is a Canadian artist who gathers and utilizes found natural materials in a variety of mediums such as painting, sculpture, drawing, installation, photography and video to explore different themes in her work, calling upon early childhood memories, her Jewish heritage, and her experience of moving from Israel to Canada. She works and lives in Montreal, Québec.
Sylvia Safdie was born in Aley, Lebanon, on August 17, 1942, to her parents Leon and Rachel Safdie. She was born into a Jewish family, the youngest of three siblings. Her eldest brother, Moshe Safdie (born 1938) is an architect, and her other brother, Gabriel Safdie (born 1940) is a poet and literature teacher. She spent her early childhood years in Mount Carmel, Israel, but at age eleven, her family moved from Haifa, Israel to Montréal, Québec in 1953. She married, had two children, worked as a dental assistant and travelled. At the age of 26 while recovering from an operation she turned to painting. Safdie obtained her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree at Concordia University, in Montreal, Québec, in 1975. Safdie currently resides and works in her sixteen-thousand-square-foot home in Montreal, Québec, which was shared with John Heward, who was an active artist and her life partner until his death in 2018.
