ArtWorkX July 14, 2018, Celebration Square, Mississauga

A scant week after Toronto Outdoor, I took part in the second annual ArtWorkX, a live art-making aspect of the After Dark Earth Market: a multi-faceted event put on by the City Of Mississauga to raise awareness of ecological concerns and the cities' initiatives to address them. Working alongside Claudio Ghirardo, Nisreen Askar and Gaya Kairos, we each made work along environmental themes using pieces of discarded city infrastructure we had selected earlier at the public works yard. (I got to choose a ton of road signs – yay!) At the end of the evening, we assembled all our pieces together into a conglomerate that was then also (due to Claudio's tireless efforts) exhibited in the lobby of the Living Arts Centre. 
Culture never happens in a vacuum – thanks to:
• Claudio for the inviting me to participate and for organizing everything from the artists' end.
• Nisreen and Gaya for their good natures, hard work and artistic inspiration.
• Michelle Charbonneau and Victoria Kramkowski at the city for doing so much to help wacky artist's ideas fit within city rules, regs, health and safety, etc. and all your planning, facilitating and day-of helping hands from start to finish!
• Curator Lee Petrie for finding a way to  exhibit our glorious contraption at the Living Art Centre! See photo below by Claudio.

Toronto Outdoor Art Festival, July 6, 7, 8, 2018

7/9/2018

This July I did my first-ever Toronto Outdoor Art Fair at Nathan Philips Square. It was a great experience all 'round: The weather was perfect summer weather - hot without being sweltering.  The crowds were large, cheerful and interested – so many great conversations! And SOOO many great artists and artisans at the fair.

It takes a village to raise a Kal, so big shout-outs of thanks to:
• All my friends, family and students who came by in droves to spot me for food and drink runs, and kept me feeling so well supported – I really felt the love! 
•  The organizers and volunteers of TOAF: you guys think of everything and do a GREAT job!
• Everyone who entered my free print contest, and especially those of you who signed up for my email list! 
• Kim-Lee Kho: for constant support and encouragement.
• My booth-neighbour (and TOAF award winner for Best of 2D Works) Laura Peturson for cheerful help throughout the weekend, and taking the photo below!

Every year is juried, so no guarantees, but I'll definitely be back next year if I get in!

Queen West Art Crawl, September 1 & 2, 2016

9/24/2016

0 Comments

 
This fall, I participated in my first-ever outdoor art festival: the Queen West Art Crawl! I applied with two objectives: to have my work seen in the heart of Toronto’s principle art neighbourhood, and to use the deadline as incentive for making a new body of work. 

Despite cold and rainy weather putting a damper on Saturday, the Sunday was very well-attended. I met and talked with a lot of lovely, interested show-goers and received a lot of positive feedback — and even a few sales! Thanks to everyone who came out — especially friends and family — it meant a lot to me to feel your support. 

It’s a great event, so I intend to return in 2017 — hope to see you there!

Extra special thanks to Kim Lee Kho who helped with so many things: social media, prep and shlep, set up and take down BOTH days — I couldn’t have done it without you!

I would also like to acknowledge funding support from the Ontario Arts Council, an agency of the Government of Ontario.

Get Noticed - Redhead Gallery, December 3-20, 2014.

12/1/2014

0 Comments

 
I 'm delighted to have had my Tour de France installation General Classification selected by Powell MacDougall of p | m gallery and Erin Stump of Erin Stump Projects for Redhead's Get Noticed exhibition. The configuration is quite different from its previous showing at Station Gallery. In order to save width, it uses 15' of the 16' height of Redhead's tallest wall, and is set in solidly-packed rows of 10. The non-finishers are still strewn on the floor, but in a more compressed manner.
