Synopsis:
We had a lively conversation about creating public installations, the mental health benefits of creating and experiencing art and how collaborations can sometimes be a challenge but can grow your creative inspirations. Also a shout-out to Deserres - a Canadian art supply company! Next show for both of us is ArtWalk in the Square Online.
Artist Statement:
"I’m a Toronto-based contemporary artist, currently working in sculpture. This ongoing series “Prone to Overthinking” consists of pieces I create that are an exploration of the relationship between you and the art. I’m fascinated by our differences in brain chemistry, which shape the way we experience reality and drastically impact how we relate to the world on a physical level. Each piece examines the point at which our individual perspectives meet and we experience reality as shared beings. The sculptures take cues from images of neurons, mapped cell structures, and brain scans. Curling up from their supports, the pieces will transform with changes in light as their bodies cast colourful shadows onto the surface below. As the mounted sculptures reflect themselves, I hope you find a moment of reflection as well."
