Tread Lightly at Langara Station

Posted by on Dec 17, 2011 in News, Uncategorized | Comments Off

I was just informed by Tim Nash and Luke Blackstone that the jury has decided to install Tread Lightly at Langara Station! Congratulations to all of  my fellow class mates and thank you for your contributions towards the design and fabrication of this sculpture. The insallation of our sculpture, Tread Lightly, is tentatively set for January.

Our would-be collective was informed that Janice Fairley, the Public Art Program & Website Director for inTransit BC, was on the jury and was “very excited” about how this project was created. We are expecting it will get a huge amount of exposure from both viewers onsite, on the inTransit website and possibly on facebook.

Day of the Dead Show with Studio 659

Posted by on Sep 23, 2011 in Events | Comments Off

I must admit I had lots of fun with this one. Studio 659 put out a call to artist to submit pieces in the theme of  Día de los Muertos, a Mexican holiday that focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. I was playing around with some new ideas and set them to a sugar skull.

Studio 659 will feature a new Day of the Dead Art Show during the month of October. The show will showcase art depicting the traditional Mexican holiday of Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead).

Typically Day of the Dead art features decorated skeleton skulls, marigolds and brightly colored fabrics.

Opening Night of this show will be Friday, September 30 – 6:59 pm – 9 pm. Free to all, free refreshments and a chance to meet artists featured in the show. Plenty of free street parking.

Opening night was all kinds of unbelievable. Thank you everyone who were able to come out to the opening of Generasjoner! I am so blessed by your love and support.

My only regret is that my grandfather is no longer with us and therefore able to see his beautiful work so prominently displayed on the gallery walls.
