Biography
Born in Saint John, New Brunswick,[1][2] Bates began her formal art studies at the age of 12 with Stanley Royale, who taught at Mount Allison University. Bates subsequently studied at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Belgium, at the Sorbonne in Paris, and at the Pratt Graphic Centre in New York.[3] She is noted for her embossing technique, and in the 1960s, became well known for her Plexiglas cube sculptures which incorporated print processes.[4] Her work is often inspired by Occidental themes or religions. She was a professor at the University of Victoria.[2][5] Her work is included in the collection of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.[6]
