I am building these little viewing boxes to display my new video work for my upcoming solo show at AKA in Sasktoon it's called : ' If found return to me '
here are some of the drawings getting all framed up for the Alberta Biennale - The top two are from Bologna - the tree drawing is from Giorgio Morandi's backyard and here is a tiny sample of the animation i will be screening along with the drawings ... new title ' go so we may see' https://vimeo.com/20855237
Okay so if you ever end up in Venice - take the extra boat trip out to Burano Island and visit the Lace Museum. The museum has the most heartbreakingly GORGEOUS brain melting lace collection and real lace makers ! The ladies hangout and produce the tiniest most intricate handmade Burano lace and chat and laugh and are so totally lovely. I spent a couple days drawing them and watching their impossible little "punta in aria " ( stitches in the air ).
