Debbie Ebanks Schlums is a three dimensional artist working from her studio in Mulmur, Ontario, Canada. Born in Jamaica and raised in Canada, she spent seven years in Switzerland where she completed graduate studies in international relations. Her academic interests and experiential observations of society form the basis for the conceptual development of her work. The gray areas of a nuanced existence are highlighted as a foil to the polarized view of the world that appears pervasive in the society. Combining the natural with the manufactured, Debbie’s work includes kiln-casted glass, hydrostone cement, wood, felt and moss.
