Up To Date! GRADUATE EXHIBITION




Sorry everyone for being a bit of a blogger fail latley. Being back in Canada has been a bit of a whirlwind experience. I was a part of the 96th Annual Graduate Exhibition at OCAD U and it was an incredible show! I would argue one of the strongest Grad Shows OCAD has had that I have seen.
I'm finally able to post pictures from it. Finally...
I have some exciting things planed for the months ahead so I'll do my best to keep you all posted! :)

Upcoming Exhibition: VESTIGES




Visible traces, evidence, or signs of something that once existed but exists or appears no more.

The upcoming show VESTIGES is the accumulation of the incredible growth that OCAD University's Florence Program has facilitated in 2011. I am so proud to be a part of this amazing exhibition and even more so, to be associated with all of these fabulous artists.
