Flocking



"Duo" Flocked Monoprint 5x7

This print is actually only half of the piece - the final product has two koi circling each other as a diptych, framed in a gray wood shadowbox.



"Mask" 5x5 Monoprint with Flocked Pigment

Flocking with pigment instead of fibre is highly addictive! The pigment can be very sparse and spraypaint-esque or can block out the entire background. A great way to experiment with layers and colours, too.


"Queen" 18x24 Intaglio

Nuit Blanche 2007




I was the interactive photographer for Nuit Blanche 2007 at PROOF, taking over two hundred photos of participants that then became the art on the walls as the night went on. See a collection of some photos at: http://proofnuitblanche2007.blogspot.com/

Nuit Blanche 2008 is coming up on October 4, 2008 with the theme of secrets. Come be photographed - we provide the masks and you provide the secrets!

'Embellishments' - Festival of the Arts Photography Exhibition

"Embellishments" - A Photographic Exhibition

The intersection of two historically suppressed embellishments through digital photography.











Historically both Victorian wallpaper and tattoos have been stigmatized as signs of deviancy, and now both have been consumed into mass media.

Supported by the University of Toronto's Festival of the Arts

Update: Pictures of the exhibition while up at St. Joseph's College, March 7-20, 2008.




Update: This show of photographs was also exhibited at the Toronto restaurant Le Bar Au Soupe, 164 Ossington Ave from September through November, 2008.
