Artwork Highlights
Artist: Attributed to Marta Hauer (Toronto-based abstract artist). This specific mixed media triptych series is titled "Trilogy" (or sometimes listed as Triptych Mixed Media Stretched on Canvas Wall Art Trilogy) by Toronto-based abstract artist Marta Hauer. Marta Hauer is a respected regional decorative artist (Toronto-based). Her work is typically sold through galleries, interior designers, and estate sales rather than "blue-chip" investment auctions (like Sotheby's).
Why the artwork is from
When an artwork is unsigned, experts use Visual Attribution—matching unique "fingerprints" in the style to a known artist's body of work. Here is the specific evidence for Marta Hauer:
1. The "Newspaper Skin" TechniqueMarta Hauer is a mixed-media artist known for a very specific collage technique:
She does not just glue paper to the background; she uses newspaper and text clippings to fill the bodies of her silhouettes.
The Match: Look at the "Collage" panel. The legs are filled with text/newspaper print. This is her primary trademark.
2. The "Glitch" or "Sliced" FigureHauer often paints figures that look like they have been shifted or "glitched" sideways.
The Match: The woman in the center panel (dark silhouette) has a skirt that is physically "sliced" and shifted to the right. This surrealist depiction of motion is a specific design element she uses in her "Journey" and "Trilogy" themes to show movement through time.
3. The "Architectural Blocking"
Her abstract landscapes almost always feature:
Heavy, dark rectangular blocks at the bottom (anchoring the image).
Vertical geometric strips (like the "white lane" on the right) that act as walls or windows.
Horizon Lines: A cream or white horizontal line that connects multiple panels.
The Match: the triptych has all three of these structural elements, and they align perfectly when placed in the order.
4. Regional Context (Toronto)
Marta Hauer is a Toronto-based artist, and her work is most frequently found in Ontario estate sales, auctions, and galleries (like the ones appearing in local listings).
The fact that you likely found this in a context where Canadian or Toronto art circulates (or if you are in that region) strongly increases the probability.
Summary
While there is no signature on the front, the combination of newspaper-filled silhouettes, the "sliced" body effect, and the geometric colour blocking creates a visual match so specific that it is highly unlikely to be another artist.
