I will be participating in a virtual international art residency at PROYECTO´ACE in Buenos Aires starting in February. This residency is so exciting because I will be creating new work and collaborating with other international artists. During Covid this is more important than ever. The theme for this cohort is Frontier.
On January 21st I co-created and facilitated Moving Forms: Life Drawing with Dancers, drawing moving bodies. a collaborative workshop with choreographer Constance Cooke and Xchanges Gallery and Studios as part of Dance Days 2021. Over 55 people registered and with 49 attending! we spent two hours working through an experimental approach to drawing moving bodies - an exhilarating challenge. Our research is leading Constance and I into new territory and we will be launching a new collaborative project with iterative installations in 'analogue' and online space simultaneously. You can read the blog post on Xchanges site here.
December 2020
I launched Xchanges Gallery and Studios very first online exhibitions in December and the reception was wonderful with 75 people registering and over 65 people in attendance. The Covid 19 LIFE: Virtual Drawing in the Time of Covid has over 135 drawings by artists from Canada and the United States. You can check it out here. The second online exhibition launched simultaneously was the Xchanges annual members' exhibition - this year's theme was A Moment in Time, very appropriate given our current realities. You can see this show here.
