Next week 155,578,
featuring the work of 50+ artists with connections to Guelph opens at the @agguelph

I am thrilled to have 2 works selected for the exhibition including “what we cannot see - (stitches).

Thank you to the @ontarioartscouncil for supporting the development of this work, and @erinszikora and @shaunajmccabe for your curatorial magic.

155,578 is the first curatorial initiative by Erin Szikora (as the AGG’s new Curator of Contemporary Art!), and “the exhibition seeks to listen to the city — to the stories, questions, and creative gestures that define its present, while looking ahead at possibilities for its future.”

You are invited!

The reception is next Thursday, May 22, @ 6:30pm

take off / landing

vacations always feel like a dream. one day you’re snorkelling with barracudas and angel fish and then suddenly you’re back in your living room petting a cat and posting videos on social media.

forest, toned cyanotype on Kozuke.

I love watching the glittering blur through a forest as I pass it on my bike or from a moving vehicle. It’s an impossible sensation of magic to photograph.

These two photo-based works were selected for the @insightsarts 44th Juried Exhibition of Fine Arts @ The Wellington County Museum & Archives.

My cyanotype “Lake Huron” also earned me the Photography Award - sponsored by Maureen & Max McIntyre (🙏)! (Photo #2 is called Fictive Landmark).

I am grateful to @elorafergusarts in collaboration with @wellingtoncounty for the opportunity for regional artists to share our work.

On April 12, there is ‘A Walk with the Jurors’ from 1:30- 3pm - a chance to see the works in this year’s exhibition from the perspective of the jurors @colette_laliberte @shaunajmccabe and Kevin Ghiglione.

The exhibition runs until May 25.

Last weekend I attended an amazing workshop - “Introduction to Mordançage” on black and white prints led by @ellasharpmorton at @g44photo .

Ella generously provided documentation about the process before the workshop with a suggestion that thin negatives would be best suited for the process, so I was ready with a negative I had high hopes for a particular outcome from. The workshop was incredibly organized and paced for multiple participants, and I was able to make 4 unique prints from fibre print to mordancage. There is nothing that compares to the magic of a full day in the darkroom. 🙏 Ella! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Mordançage is an obscure darkroom technique developed in the 1970’s by French photographer Jean-Pierre Sudre that evolved from the 19th century process of bleach-etching.

So grateful that there is a GGRC+ for kids who self-identify as female, trans, and gender nonconforming to have space to explore music and experience being in a band. Every year we’re blown away by all the bands born on the March Break and their magical performances. 🙌💪

Mail surprise from my pal @eric.farache ! 🙏❤️⚡️

I have always wondered at his “seemingly” effortless ability to capture people everywhere and anywhere that fill his elaborate sketchbooks. And now I have some “fragments” to call my own!

You can have your camera drone modded to shoot infrared, or spend $200 on a single roll of colour infrared film, or you can use Photoshop.

I looked in my fridge, there’s only B&W IR and Sakuracolor.
