Molly Sturge (b. 2002) is a Canadian artist from Halifax, Nova Scotia. She holds a BFA in Painting and Drawing from Concordia University in Montreal, where she has lived for the past five years. She is currently based in Berlin.
Molly\u2019s practice engages painting as a historically charged medium to explore symbols, memory, and the layered visual language of personal and cultural associations. Drawing on historical imagery, religious iconography, and everyday objects\u2014often kitsch, discarded, or sentimental\u2014she examines how meaning
shifts across time and generations.
Her approach is rooted in collecting: fragments of text, found photographs, and objects whose significance has faded or changed. She uses these materials as a visual vocabulary to construct images that invite viewers to consider shifting cultural values, the residue of faith in secular contexts, and the uneasy relationship between intimacy and shame.
Molly\u2019s work reflects a process of reframing and recombining familiar symbols to question their enduring power. She is interested in the way religious imagery persists in contemporary spaces despite secularization, and in the intersection of personal memory with broader social histories. Recently, she has explored themes of guilt, feminine experience, and the commodification of spiritual symbols, informed by her background in art history and her ongoing interest in visual culture.
She is influenced by the shifting aesthetic legacy of Catholicism in Quebec. Her practice combines a sensitivity to material with critical research on cultural memory, aiming to create works that remain open to interpretation while anchored in layered histories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
