Emily Carr was one of Canadas most gifted painters and writers Born in colonial Victoria British Columbia in 1871 she showed an early desire to commit her life to art and before she was twenty had persuaded her family to allow her to attend art school Study in San Francisco London and Paris followed but her heart never left the British Columbia coast which remained the strongest influence on her life and workFiercely independent and defiantly individualistic she was considered an eccentric by the society around her Working largely in isolation without the example of strong women artists to look to and years ahead of the art of her time and place Carr demolished some traditionally cherished notions about women artists

What happens when an individual becomes the subject of many and divergent portraits Biography says Stephanie Kirkwood Walker is a deceptive genre Positioned between fact and fiction and elusive in its purposes biography displays an individual life an existence patterned by conventions that have also shaped the readers experience In This Woman in Particular Walker explores versions of Emily Carrs life that have appeared over the last halfcentury Walker contends that the biographical image of Emily Carr that emerges from an accumulation of biographies films plays and poetry as well as her own autobiographical writing establishes an elaborated cultural artefact an image that is bound by its very nature to remain forever incomplete and always elusive She demonstrates how changes in Carrs biographical image parallel the maturing of Canadian biographical writing reflecting attitudes toward women artists and the shifting balance between religion secular attitudes and contemporary spirituality And she concludes that biography plays a crucial role in all our lives in initiating and sustaining debate on vital personal and collective concerns
